"New DGC Multi-Functional Indoor Centre"

Ground Broken for DGC Indoor Multi-Functional Centre

Durban Girls’ College officially broke ground 9 March 2026 on its new R49-million Indoor Multi-Functional Centre, marking the start of an exciting new chapter in the development of the campus.

Construction began with the demolition of the existing staff accommodation following the first official site meeting on campus. The state-of-the-art 3,370 m², three-storey facility will include a sports centre, multi-purpose hall, and additional boarding and staff accommodation.

Designed by Elphick Proome Architecture, the new centre will enhance sporting, academic and event facilities at the College as it prepares to celebrate its 150th anniversary in 2027. Construction is expected to take approximately 16 months, culminating in a versatile space that will serve generations of Durban Girls’ College students to come.

This important legacy project represents a significant investment in the future of Durban Girls’ College and its continued commitment to providing world-class opportunities for girls.
