Northside Christian College adds a new early learning space with Harwyn
Northside Christian College in Brisbane needed a new kindergarten space fast. Enrolments were rising, the waitlist had exceeded 100 applicants a year, and the school was operating with only two existing kindy rooms.
To meet demand for 2025 and beyond, they required a high-quality, low disruption solution delivered quickly.
A purpose-built 160 m² kindergarten building
Working closely with the school, Harwyn delivered a custom-designed 160 m² early learning environment featuring:
- A large open kindergarten space
- A separate library behind bifold glass doors
- Flexible L-shaped learning configuration
- Staff office
- Generous storage
- Toilets and changing room
A calm, functional and beautifully finished space tailored for early learners.
Why Northside chose Harwyn
Northside’s leadership team sought a solution that combined speed, premium quality, and absolute certainty. A visit to other Harwyn buildings gave them confidence in the design, finish, and overall performance of Harwyn’s modular architecture.
“The buildings we saw were stunning… when we walked in here, we realised this was exactly the same, if not better.”
— Albert Brown, Operations Manager
“Our enrolments were growing at a pace we could not meet.”
— Richard Segers, Head of Business Operations
Delivered in 10 weeks — installed in 1
Northside needed certainty and speed. Harwyn delivered both.
- Footings started Friday
- Building installed Monday
- Project completed by Friday
“There was no mess, no fuss, no noise… and by the end of the week we had a building. Absolutely amazing.”
— Richard Segers, Head of Business Operations
The entire build took 10 weeks in Harwyn’s factory and just one week on site, keeping the busy K–12 campus running without disruption.
Quality that stands out
From acoustic performance to finish detail, the building made an immediate impression on Northside’s leadership team.
“The thing that impressed us most was the walls and the acoustics, the way they’ve padded the walls and ceilings.”
— Albert Brown, Operations Manager
Harwyn collaborated with the school on all interior specifications and managed the full compliance pathway, including:
- Council coordination
- Plumbing and electrical
- Building documentation and approvals
“The project came in on time, well within budget… we felt very comfortable with what we spent and what we received.”
— Richard Segers, Head of Business Operations
