Northcote College (years 9-13) is in Northcote, Auckland with a July 2018 roll of 1,114 students and 60 teaching spaces. There are also 5 Board-owned teaching spaces. The school was founded in 1877 and is the oldest secondary school on the North Shore. The school is decile 7.
The school sits on 8.92ha of north facing land and is bounded by Onewa Road and Kauri Glen Road. Generally, sports areas are located to the Northern side and buildings to the West and South Boundaries. Buildings range in age from 1877 to 2005, with heritage status Category A notified by Auckland Council on four buildings (Blocks C, D, L and Z) which affects their exterior aesthetics only.
Predominantly, buildings built between 1930s and 1970s are well maintained and comprise cellular single level timber framed buildings with two cellular timber framed buildings at Nelson Blocks. There are two recent newer buildings constructed in 2005.
58 teaching spaces are located on the North Eastern side of Kauri Glen Road, with the remaining 2 located on the other side of this road.
Due to the dilapidated condition of building block F (known by the school as the Oro block) it was identified by the Ministry school property team that the fire alarm system in this block no longer met the requirements of the building code and needs to be upgraded to meet compliance. This work is deemed to be a capital upgrade and has been handed to the Ministry’s Education Information Service (EIS) delivery team to manage and deliver.
Upon further inspection of block F, it has also been determined that the load bearing external walls of the block require replacement along with the existing external cladding which is asbestos fibre cement board.
Due to the building alarm system and external walls requiring an upgrade the work is deemed urgent and is a separate requirement to the planned redevelopment of the college to be procured separately. A lead design consultant for the project was procured in October 2020. Kakapo Design trading as “Fat Parrot Architecture”. As part of their engagement with the Ministry they have been instructed to act as agents for the Ministry of Education, are authorised to apply for and uplift the outline plan of works (OPW), prepare issued for construction (IFC) drawings to support an application for Resource Consent and Building Consent as well as any other documentation required to allow this work to take place.
