Learning spaces at Richmond View School are far from traditional and are created to facilitate creative approaches to teaching and learning. Rooms are light, airy and warm, promoting group work, personalised learning opportunities and individualised programmes catering to the diverse needs of learners.

Our spaces

Every classroom has the capability for learning to occur in solitary, small group, larger group and whole class contexts. Spaces are utilised to complement the task being undertaken. Small focus rooms, provide spaces for students to ​work independently or in small groups in a inspiring environment.

Beyond the classrooms and outdoor learning spaces, we also have a state-of-the-art auditorium, Hospitality room, hall and library.​
