Rohrig builds Flagstone future with St Bonaventure’s College
Rohrig is proud to announce the completion of a major greenfield development in Flagstone, Brisbane, delivering the all-new St Bonaventure’s College campus. This $39-plus million project transformed the 77,000sqm site into a modern educational precinct, welcoming its inaugural cohort of students in Term 1, 2026.
The campus, designed by Macksey Rush Architects and project managed by Generate Property Group, will accommodate 1,836 students and features seven new buildings and state-of-the-art sporting facilities. The design utilises playful architectural forms to encourage student engagement across education, sport, and faith.
“It has been incredibly exciting to welcome our foundation students into such a thoughtfully designed and beautifully constructed campus. These outstanding facilities provide the ideal foundation for a joyful, connected and faith-filled College community, where every student, called by name, can learn, grow and flourish,” said Foundation Principal, Anthony Elmore.
Construction began with extensive site preparation to manage a large amount of rock found on the greenfield site. Then, to navigate the complexity and scale of the build within the 54-week programme, our team employed concurrent methodology. Multiple teams operated across multiple work fronts simultaneously.
This approach saw the on-time delivery of a junior learning building, middle years building, administration building, canteen and uniform shop, maintenance building, OSHC facility, and a sports court building, along with external elements that included an open-style amphitheatre, playgrounds, a carpark, and extensive landscaping.
The sports facilities are a highlight of the new campus, featuring professional-grade finishes for a world-class sporting experience. The indoor sports court boasts flooring consistent with Australian Open standards, while the outdoor sports field features pro-grade turf with enhanced drainage to allow for next-day gameplay following rainfall.
“This project was complex and with the goal of opening the school for Term 1 in 2026 we didn’t have any margin for delay, so we chose to use a concurrent construction method,” said Rohrig Construction Manager, Matthew Tucker.
“As a result, we are proud of the fact that large sized school has opened on-time, proving that our thinking behind the methodology for this project was on point.
“Delivering seven buildings and significant outdoor elements like the sporting fields in just 54 weeks is a massive achievement. We are especially proud to have delivered this project on-time and with zero notifiable incidents, reflecting our enduring commitment to safety.”
The Rohrig team is honoured to have brought St Bonaventure’s College to life, providing a world-class foundation for the growing Flagstone community.
