Proposed Redcliffs School site on Redcliffs Park

Background

Following the 2011 earthquakes and subsequent cliff collapse and debris inundation on and above parts of the school property, Redcliffs School was relocated to Van Asch Deaf Education Centre in Sumner.

From early 2015 to late 2016 consultation was undertaken about the future of the school.  The decision was made by the Minister of Education to relocate the school to an alternative site in Redcliffs.

28 September 2017

The Ministry have been working with the Redcliffs School Board of Trustees to develop a community engagement process for gaining the community’s input on developing the plan for the new school on Redcliffs Park.

We will engage and consult with the Redcliffs School Board of Trustees throughout the design process and we will be supporting the board to carry out the public engagement.

The board will engage with the local community during this process, and will lead the consultation with the community on proposed designs. This could take the form of newsletters to inform the community on the proposed designs and/or meetings.

This will be an opportunity to create innovative learning environments that are built to meet the needs of Redcliffs School, as part of the wider Redcliffs community.

The design process will start before the end of this year and will run until approximately mid 2018.

Information will be updated here and a detailed timeline for this will be made available once it has been finalised with Redcliffs School.
