The Wingaru STEMP Project at Saint Ignatius’ College Riverview is an exciting endeavor that aims to provide specialized facilities for studying Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics, and Personal Development Health and Physical Education (PDHPE). As an independent and boarding school for boys, the college is dedicated to offering a holistic Catholic education that inspires lifelong faith development and cultivates global citizenship. 

The Wingaru facility will feature a range of state-of-the-art spaces designed to enhance learning and support students’ mental health and well-being. It will include thirteen new science classrooms and superlabs, eight technology, engineering, applied studies, and general learning areas, as well as eight mathematics classrooms. A dedicated human movement lab and PDHPE learning space will promote physical development and wellness. Covered outdoor learning areas, six House areas, and a dedicated Learning Enrichment area will further enrich the educational environment. 

In alignment with the site’s Indigenous heritage, the building has been sensitively designed and named after extensive consultation with First Nations Elders. It includes a First Nations cultural space, reflecting the college’s commitment to honoring Indigenous culture. 

The Wingaru STEMP Project represents Saint Ignatius’ College Riverview’s dedication to providing an exceptional educational experience that prepares young men to thrive in an ever-changing world.
