Modular Classroom Installation at Ōtāne School

This March, the Niche Group delivered four modular classrooms and an administration block to Ōtāne School.

Despite challenges from Cyclone Gabrielle, the project ran smoothly thanks to efficient planning and Niche's specialised delivery capabilities. Principal Tracey Turfrey praised the functionality and design of the new facilities, which are ready for students at the start of Term 2. Landscaping and site clean-up will conclude by August 2025.

A stand out feature of this project is the delivery timeframe. Niche's prep work—including concrete pouring and sub-floor framework— was completed in just two weeks. This enabled a seamless handover only two weeks after the buildings landed on March 4 and 6, 2025.

Niche's timeline for this project delivery is unmatched in the industry, where others are spending up to nine months on site works for similar modular projects, Niche's total time on site - 4 weeks.

This project demonstrates Niche’s unmatched speed and precision in delivering high-quality, purpose-built spaces, while setting a new efficiency standard in delivering critical infrastructure.
