On the 60th anniversary year of this school, this building, planned as the first school building to be rebuilt, maintains a simple configuration in which all rooms are normal classrooms. As this building is positioned centrally within the remaining group of buildings scheduled for rebuilding, the design incorporates a wide open communal area that enables the visualization of accessibility for students, as well as considerations for future structural openings to allow integration with the surrounding facilities without fragmenting the campus. Furthermore, with a view to establishing the benchmark for future rebuilds, the design adopts an approach to introduce IT facilities to all normal classrooms and also aims to create spacious classrooms.
