Grand Opening Campus Eemsdelta
DE CAMPUS AS AND EDUCATIONAL LANDSCAPE
Campus Eemsdelta is a new school campus located in the North of the Netherlands, near the city of Groningen. Three levels of secondary education, practical training and a sports cluster have been merged into a single facility consisting of several buildings with a total area of 16,600m2. After a relatively short and successful period of designing, development and construction, the campus was officially opened on June 3rd with a festive opening weekend.
The value of a natural, healthy learning environment
The new campus accommodates 1700 students, is generating energy, 100% circular and fulfills the challenge to be earthquake-resilient. Felixx made the design for Campus Eemsdelta together with De Unie Architecten, and was commissioned by the Foundation for Secondary Education Eemsdelta, ROC Noorderpoort and the municipality of Appingedam.
The campus is not just a school, but a catalyst for community and outdoor life. A green learning environment brings future generations closer to nature and strengthens their relationship with it. Numerous studies prove the positive impact on the development of children and the overall quality of education.
We hope that Campus Eemsdelta will inspire and put the design and use of schoolyards higher on the agenda of everyone involved in education and educational accommodation.
