Sydney Catholic Schools see the new Rosebery Primary School as the benchmark for Catholic Primary Schools in NSW.
The design evolved in response to the pedagogy and natural landscape setting of the Botany Sands system.
Retained slopes form the framework of the design. Enabling a variety of small and large spaces to peel off the grassed hill, remnant of the dune system, endemic trees provide shade and structure outdoor spaces.
