BUILDING A SCHOOL CAMPUS

FIT FOR THE FUTURE

In recent years, within our own resources, we have fundamentally redeveloped our campus to help provide the infrastructure through which we can deliver a first-class education. Most recently, in 2021, we built a new Junior School, Sixth Form Centre, and STEM block, all of which have transformed the teaching and learning spaces within the Stanstead Road site.

Our next areas of focus are the facilities for Sports and Leisure and the Performing Arts.

Sports & Leisure

In the next two years, we plan to deliver a significant expansion in our existing Sport and Leisure Centre by doubling its size. This will allow us to introduce vastly improved changing facilities and classrooms for specialised teaching and training. This initiative reflects the value we place on sports for the physical health and wellbeing of our students as well as for enhancing leadership and teamwork skills.

Also included will be four brand new Rugby Fives Courts close to their original 1888 footprint.

Upgrading sports at St Dunstan’s enables us to expand significantly what we offer for community use, and provide a hub for partnerships with clubs and sports bodies at both local and national level.

Performing Arts

St Dunstan’s has an impressive track record in staging inspiring and memorable live performances over its long history. The St Dunstan’s Festival, our annual celebration of arts and culture, is now firmly established as a fixture in our local area, bringing people across the community together through inspiring shared experiences.

Our new Performing Arts Centre includes a theatre space to match the talent of our students, with surrounding studios and practice rooms.

As well as hosting school performances, this new 200-seat flexible space will be a resource for professional, amateur and community groups, and a hub for workshops, live streaming and inspiring live shows. “

We want to continue to add to the facilities housed here and secure additional support needed to stage large-scale productions and build community partnerships.

If you would like to support this, the new Sports & Leisure Centre, or the programmes that they will host, please get in touch.
