St Albans Childcare Centre

NCS was engaged by Allaf Property to deliver a new 957m² childcare facility at 41–47 St Albans Road, St Albans. Delivered under a Design and Construct contract, the project includes the construction of indoor and outdoor play areas, administration spaces, kitchen facilities, a landscaped carpark, and all associated building services

Designed by Ellis Group and built by Lorden Vella, the centre will accommodate up to 130 children, addressing the growing need for childcare options in Melbourne’s west. Although the project encountered delays due to unexpected rock removal and several design variations during construction, works have progressed steadily. Landscaping works, coordinated by the incoming tenant, are scheduled to coincide with the forecast Practical Completion in June 2025.
