St Kevin’s College is situated across three main campuses at Heyington in Toorak, Waterford in Richmond and Glendalough in Toorak. The college commissioned the preparation of a Master Plan to accommodate the increase in student numbers, curriculum commitments, student services, and senior staff accommodation.

The key to the success of the Master Plan for the Heyington campus was in finding sites for new buildings where apparently there were none, through the innovation of redirecting of vehicle traffic. In addition, we were able to use to great effect the slope of the steep site to accommodate two four-storey buildings within restrictive local Town Planning requirements.

For twelve years Baldasso Cortese developed many projects large and small for St Kevin’s College. All nine significant projects identified in the Master Plan that we developed with them were delivered and they all added significant new and advanced capacity to St Kevin’s. Some of the major facilities included a new sports complex at Tooronga, a new secondary science building, new music facilities for primary and secondary students, new administration facilities, and a boutique multipurpose hall for wider school community engagement and professional development. Additionally, there is a well-used main school multipurpose hall, a new external urban square, a chapel, and various other smaller modernisations usually undertaken over a school break.
