The project
Cairns State High School was first built in 1917. Through the Queensland Government's Renewing Our Schools programme, TPG Architects designed the new Centennial Hall, a three-court multipurpose facility.
Its distinctive façade of laser-cut panels is based on the school's Indigenous logo. A stage, change rooms and lighting and sound systems allow the whole school to gather. TPG Architects prepared the early design and then provided full documentation for the design and construct builder. The hall was completed in 2021.
