Ilam School is part of the Ministry of Education (MoE) Canterbury Schools Rebuild Programme, with our school preparing to undertake a major redevelopment project.

This multi-million dollar project will modernise our current school facilities and provide facilities that support our tamariki — with spaces that support their learning, as well as functional spaces for our wider school whānau and staff.

We completed the first Master Planning stage of the development in 2022.

In 2023 we move into the design stage.

At this point, construction is set to begin in 2024.

We will have more information on the timeline in the first half of 2023.

A Redevelopment Sub-Committee will oversee the project as it moves forward, with members representing our Board, our staff and our wider community.

More information will be provided as this exciting project progresses.
