Mooroolbark College

Founded in 1973, Mooroolbark College is an outstanding, co-educational government school for students from years seven to twelve. Mooroolbark places great emphasis on inclusivity and the mental wellbeing of students. They are proud to have a fantastic support team for students who need a helping hand. Taking this student wellbeing focus a step further, the college recently upgraded their 30-year-old Admin space to a modern Student Wellbeing and Learning Centre. Located in the heart of the school, the centre provides a hub for student support services and a space for students and staff to relax and share ideas. The centre is a collection of unstructured and structured learning and passive study spaces, all with links to the outside and a connection to nature.  Students use these spaces for quiet chill-out time, private study and lunch breaks. Furniture was carefully chosen to foster a sense of wellbeing, using a selection of soft and hard pieces in an array of calming blues and earthy woodgrains. Furniture pieces included booths, lounges, collaborative settings, supportive café style seating, desking and furniture that incorporated AudioArt sound dampening board.
