THE BRIEF

St Michael’s College in Adelaide, South Australia, required a comprehensive AV solution within their newly built Senior Learning Centre at their Henley Campus. The SLC encompasses various new classrooms including a VET Kitchen, numerous meeting rooms, a large open-plan foyer, and a university-style Lecture Theatre.

Each space required suitable custom AV solutions that leveraged modern classroom technologies in an intuitive, easy-to-learn and future-proof design to greatly assist increasing the quality of their teaching pedagogy. The client was seeking modern, university-grade technologies that integrated seamlessly with their individual teaching goals and school environment.

THE SOLUTION

Pro AV Solutions’ extensive experience within this University’s space allowed us to design the ideal solution for their Lecture Theatre. This space enables teachers to deliver content to 150+ students via the room’s 160” projector screen. This is controlled from a 23” HP touch screen monitor housed within the lectern. Livestreamed/recorded presentations are now possible thanks to the integration of a Panasonic HD Pan-Tilt camera, focused on the presenter and screen. The individual classrooms utilise a mixture of interactive and non-interactive LCDs with wireless presentation. To increase the overall ease-of-use, custom Extron keypad controllers have been included for each space.

Within the VET Kitchen, Pro AV Solutions installed a ceiling-mounted camera focused on the teacher’s kitchen bench, broadcasting its feed to a local large LCD screen for easier student viewing. Each space is individually bookable via the new Reserva Room Booking Solution, which utilises a small touchscreen panel on the exterior of each space, displaying the room’s details and booking information, as well as a coloured light to signify the room’s availability. All of the displays within this new SLC incorporate a OneLan Digital Signage suite, allowing school content and information to be displayed when the screen is not in use by a teacher or student. This content is all centrally managed by the school’s IT team.
