Modern modular learning spaces

For over 50 years, Portacom Building Solutions have been partnering with education professionals to deliver smart space solutions for schools throughout Aotearoa.

Whether it is space required to accommodate fluctuating student enrolment numbers, a new facility, or space for an emergency response, modular buildings offer both temporary and permanent options for short and long-term solutions.

Modular construction has revolutionised the building process, with factory-controlled quality, reduced construction schedules and a smarter use of materials making it considerably less disruptive and more sustainable than conventional building processes.

When Hutt Valley High School in Wellington required additional classroom space quickly due to an accommodation crisis, Portacom delivered 16 temporary classrooms and 8 ablution blocks to site with minimal disturbance to students and the surrounding community as a result of an efficient delivery and installation process.

“The Portacom team were flexible and agile, responding to every challenge with a solution focussed approach,” said Principal Denise Johnson.

“Portacom are very experienced at working with schools, they understand the requirements of a modern classroom.”
