Progress summary
The Development Application for the Hurlstone Agricultural School upgrade has been approved by Campbelltown City Council.
Site establishment for the construction of the new boarding facilities at Hurlstone Agricultural High School was completed in late April 2023 to prevent public access to the site (see map below). The perimeter fencing near school buildings and student accommodation is made of Class A hoarding; this material was chosen for its sturdiness and height as an increased safety measure.
Main construction works are anticipated to commence June 2023.
Next steps
Demolition of the Gate House, Dairy Cottage and two amenities blocks adjoined to Building A.
Completion of the Farm Hub design.
Removal of in-ground hazardous material under Building T and Building U.
Additional information
Frequently asked questions
What is a Development Application (DA)?
A DA is a process to acquire statutory approval from the local council for construction activities to occur.
How can I find out more about the Development Application for Hurlstone Agricultural High School?
You can find detailed information about the DA for the Hurlstone Agricultural High School upgrade on Campbelltown Council's website at: www.campbelltown.nsw.gov.au/BuildAndDevelop/DevOnline. The DA reference number is 1990/2022/DA-C.
How will dust and noise be managed during main works?
Any activity that could exceed approved construction noise management levels will be managed in accordance with the Protection of the Environment Operations Act 1997. Noise will be kept to a minimum as best as possible during the construction, and dust as a result of demolition and excavation will be hosed as required.
Trucks making deliveries to the site will have their loads covered. The site will undergo periodic air monitoring and noise and dust will be appropriately managed throughout construction in accordance with the project’s construction and environmental management plans.
We are here to make sure that work is completed safely and efficiently and we will minimise impacts on the community at every opportunity.
How will we minimise impacts to students, staff and neighbours during the main works?
School Infrastructure NSW (SINSW) is committed to ensuring that construction work is completed safely and efficiently and with minimal impact to students, staff and the local community. Rigorous safety and security measures will be in place for the duration of the works. This will include the construction area being fenced and surveillance systems installed. There will be no access to the construction area by staff or students. Traffic control will be in place as required to manage pedestrian and vehicular movements near the access points.
A COVID safe site management plan will be implemented during the entire construction period and SINSW’s regular site safety inspections and audits will continue over this time.
The SINSW project team will have regular consultations with the school to discuss construction progress. Any safety concerns will be addressed to ensure the safety and security of students and staff at all times.
How will school functions operate during the main works?
The project has been designed to ensure there is minimal impact on the school operations, including any school functions that may be held during this time. There will be continuous consultation with the school to discuss any functions, and measures will be put in place to ensure construction impacts are minimised.
Thank you for your patience while we deliver this important school infrastructure.
