St Leonard’s College is an independent co-educational school located in the Melbourne suburb of Brighton East, Australia.

The facilities at St Leonard’s College are modern and well-equipped, with state-of-the-art classrooms, science labs, and a performing arts centre.

Durra Panel collaborated with ARM Architecture and ADCO Constructions to provide an efficient acoustic ceiling system for the performing art centre, enabling students to experience the highest level of acoustics within the performance space.

The system that was used was a double layer of Durra Panel and an acoustic pattern finish for absorption to the exposed areas, this combination of two systems into one is intended to provide an efficient and effective solution for the performance space.
