Flourish Update: April 2026

Since our last update in January our new campus has undergone an incredible transformation. Through the end of January, the construction site saw the completion of key foundational work, namely the pouring of a base layer of concrete across a major expanse of the site. With that complete, February and March have seen the Axiom crew start building upwards.

As workers diligently assembled scaffolding, wooden framing, and rebar grids, the concrete boom truck paid plenty of visits to the site over the past few weeks as three distinct storeys of campus have emerged at the highest point of construction thus far.

Over on the Alexandra-facing side of campus, with considerations for drainage and plumbing sorted (this goes for the entirety of the site), foundational concrete was poured along with two storeys of elevator core. Work has now also begun to construct the outer walls of what will be the new auditorium/performance centre.

In late March we saw construction slowly slip into the current building as our staff room windows were removed and walled off, and the high-seated windows in our Sr. Kelly Gym were prepared for removal as well — this expanse of our current campus will ultimately sit flush against the new building. Our second-floor boardroom has also seen preliminary work begin for what will be a set of doors leading to a walkway that will connect the current building with the new building.

The speed at which we’ve seen the campus take shape and shoot up over the last few months has been staggering. Much of the skeleton of the new campus has come into focus now as we look forward to the arrival of the mass timber sections. The Axiom crew has been nothing short of remarkable as they’ve carried on their work with the utmost professionalism, we’re grateful for their stewardship of this construction.

Thank you for your continued support as we journey towards this new campus that will have such a profound impact on generations of Angels.
