As education environments continue to evolve, technology integration has become central to the design of modern learning spaces. For AVRUS, the New Schools Bundle B program presented an opportunity to deliver advanced audiovisual and communication systems designed to enhance teaching outcomes and support long-term operational performance.

Working alongside Hutchinson Builders, AVRUS provided a comprehensive technology package across multiple schools. “We provided the public addressing systems, in-classroom teaching systems, hearing augmentation, and the large-format LED screens for the gymnasiums and presentation systems,” said Shaun Foo, Managing Director.

Originally specified with projectors and projector screens, the gymnasium systems were redesigned by AVRUS under the design-and-construct process to deliver a more durable and future-focused outcome.

“We thought projectors wouldn’t be the best long-term result for teachers and schools,” Shaun explained. “So we redesigned the solution to include LED walls, which provide better serviceability and longevity.”

In addition to LED wall installations, AVRUS worked to ensure public address systems were fully integrated into the Victorian School Building Authority network, allowing remote monitoring and improved safety outcomes. “That was a big push for us,” Shaun explained. “If a PA system goes down, the department knows immediately, and that’s ultimately about safety for the students.”

The project required careful co-ordination, with multiple schools under construction at the same time, with rapid delivery programs, managing resources across several active sites demanded precision. “The buildings were going up at the same time, so we had to manage our workforce to cover multiple sites,” Shaun said. “Last year [2025] we delivered eight schools, so it was a busy period.”

With more than 25 schools delivered across Victoria in recent years, AVRUS continues to build a strong presence in the education sector. “We’re always looking for the best outcome for the client,” Shaun said. “We thank Hutchinson Builders for the collaboration throughout this project. We’re extremely proud of what our teams delivered together across the three schools”

The South Australian Sports Institute (SASI) is a world-class high-performance training facility dedicated to developing elite athletes through cutting-edge technology, research, and education. As part of its commitment to innovation, SASI sought to enhance its training and analysis capabilities with state-of-the-art audio-visual (AV) systems, ensuring an immersive and data-driven environment for athletes, coaches, and researchers.

Pro AV Solutions (SA) designed and implemented a tailored AV ecosystem that supports a wide range of sporting disciplines and performance analytics. The project encompassed everything from real-time video analysis and advanced display systems to integrated communication platforms, allowing for seamless collaboration and data sharing.

The facility spans three floors, deploying technology in over 30 spaces to maximise training, learning, and performance analysis. “Our goal was to provide SASI with flexible, world-class AV technology to support athletes and students alike,” a Pro AV Solutions spokesperson shared. “Key installations include more than 145m² of LED screens, 40 LCD displays with integrated control systems, and a floor-projection mapping simulation space. These systems transform training through immersive simulation and real-time performance analysis,” the spokesperson added.

Specialised AV features such as the bike lab camera system enable enhanced performance tracking, while the impact-resistant LED screens deliver high-resolution visual content.

Pro AV Solutions (SA) began work onsite in April 2024, deploying 22 skilled South Australian employees to design, install, and program in partnership with a specialised LED contractor.

“We’re proud to bring this vision to life, setting a new benchmark for AV integration in sporting facilities in South Australia,” the spokesperson concluded.

Pro AV Solutions (SA) is currently designing and implementing a number of critical projects that support the South Australian economy and operations.
