UNITY COLLEGE, Caloundra, celebrated the official opening of the third stage of construction of the Building Education Revolution Project on 8 April.
Access to $3 million under the recent Federal school building initiative allowed the College to implement plans resulting in a new, state of the art auditorium.
The new building is already booked as a venue for basketball games and international choir performances.
Its 1000 seats can be rolled away under the stage area in less than an hour.
The stage is fully equipped with lighting and sound systems.
With a student enrolment of almost 1000, the combined Catholic and Uniting Church College celebrated its first graduation of Year 12 students in 2010.
Roman Catholic Bishop Brian Finnigan and Uniting Church Moderator Bruce Johnson officiated at the opening and blessing ceremony in April.
The College, in partnership with the Uniting Church, has established an exchange program with the Peteli Middle School in Tonga and is building a partnership with a school in Shimla, India.
