St Margaret’s Gymnasium & Auditorium / Chapel, Christchurch

With St Margaret’s private college for girls sustaining earthquake damage to 80% of its buildings, this has been a major rebuild project in the heart of the school both physically and  symbolically. It is also one of the first major developments post-earthquake in Christchurch city. The gymnasium is built to international netball and basketball standards and the auditorium / chapel can seat approximately 700. With 150 piles going down 5 storeys, this is a very solid and well founded building that Hanham & Philp is immensely proud of.
