The Tasmanian Liberal Government's $23 million redevelopment of Hobart City High School is now underway, which will provide students and staff with the contemporary facilities they deserve.
Minister for Education, Jo Palmer, said the construction will include world-class learning environments that will benefit students for years to come.
"This exciting project will feature a new learning and social heart at the New Town campus, flexible learning spaces, upgraded courtyard, improved science and art areas and better distributed student bathrooms," Minister Palmer said.
"Importantly, the project has been shaped by the voices of students, staff and the broader community.
"As part of our 2030 Strong Plan for Tasmania's Future, a further 15 schools are set to receive major upgrades through the School Building Blitz."
Liberal Member for Clark, Simon Behrakis, said Tasmanian firm Vos Construction and Joinery has been appointed to undertake the works, which are expected to be completed next year.
"The revitalisation of Hobart City High school fulfils our election commitment and demonstrates our commitment to deliver contemporary learning facilities for students to thrive," Mr Behrakis said.
"This is part of the Tasmania Government's record investment in education infrastructure across the State."
Preliminary works at Hobart City High School began in 2021 with $1.6 million early enabling works to support co-educational learning at both the New Town and Ogilvie campuses.
