News : New Junior School Opens
Campbell College Junior School was officially opened on Friday 15 September by Sir John and Lady MacDermott.
The MacDermott family has over a 100 history with the College; with four generations either serving on the Board of Governors or Presiding over the Old Campbellian society. Indeed, the MacDermott Wing was named after Sir John’s father, Lord Mac Dermott, in recognition of 25 years of service to the Board.
The newly built Junior School has been described as a “quantum leap forward” in design and in the provision of environmentally friendly accommodation. The School features state-of-the-art ventilation, insulation, heating and acoustic systems, promoting it as a practical example of what it means to be energy efficient.
The official opening was celebrated by the Board of Governors, Junior School staff and parents as well as the children from Kindergarten to Prep 7.
