Ravenswood is centrally located in Gordon, just a five-minute walk from Gordon railway station and the Bus Interchange. With the school’s facilities located on one campus, interaction across the Year Groups, from Prep to Year 12, is a central part of the school’s identity.

Senior Learning Centre

The Senior Learning Centre was opened to students in 2020 and officially opened in 2021. The state-of-the-art, award-winning structure was designed to complement and reflect the history of Ravenswood’s development, from small cottages to large modern buildings. The building is characterised by a striking lyrical, copper-clad exterior and a light, bright interior accented by jewel-like blue and yellow glass. The senior students love the natural light that floods all the floors, and the innovative study and learning spaces throughout. 'The Senior Learning Centre was shortlisted in the Educational Architecture section of the 2021 NSW Architecture Awards. 

Mabel Fidler Building

Opened in 2011, the Award-Winning Mabel Fidler Building is the hub of the school, meeting the diverse needs of the school community by providing spaces for formal and informal learning, staff and student lounges, a cafeteria, dance studios and school reception and administration. The Learning Resources Centre (LRC) for Kindergarten to Year 12 students, is the primary facility and its visibility – right at the main entrance to the school – asserts that learning is our focus.
