The Growth Areas School Project (GASP) was recognised at the 2019 Victorian School Design Awards, winning the Minister’s Award for school design.

Architectus Principal and National Education Sector Leader, Mark van den Enden said, “In collaboration with K2LD Architecture, it has been a fantastic team effort that has delivered significant social infrastructure for growing communities. The GASP project will shape the minds of so many generations into the future and ultimately communities in the growth areas will be the beneficiary.”
