Officially opened by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth in October 2011, the new Royal Children's Hospital in Melbourne has delivered a world-class paediatric hospital to the children and young people of Melbourne.
The project provides state-of-the-art medical, research, education and technology facilities in an environment that is stimulating and interesting yet feels safe and secure for the young patients. Tremendous effort has been applied to create a space that is warm, inviting and engaging rather than stark and imposing. Key features such as a two storey high aquarium, interactive science displays, a live animal enclosure and an enormous central atrium "Street" with shops, cafes, amenities, sculptures and a sky garden. Support services include a childcare facility, a supermarket, various retail stores and a hotel on site. Environmental features incorporated throughout the building make it one of Australia's greenest hospitals.
