Why Gym Direct is the Go-To for School Gym Fitouts
When it comes to creating a school gym, you don’t just want a room full of equipment; you want a space that inspires, supports, and grows with your students. That’s where Gym Direct comes in.
We’re proud to be recognised as a preferred supplier certified by Education Australia, which means we’re trusted to deliver safe, high-quality fitouts designed specifically for the education sector. But what does that really mean for you? Let’s break it down.

Success Stories in Schools
Still wondering what this looks like in practice? Let’s peek inside three schools that have already made the leap.
Wentworth Point High School
Wentworth Point wanted a gym that could grow with its students. They partnered with Gym Direct for a complete commercial gym fitout tailored to student needs. Featuring the Muscle Motion RIG75F3 Freestanding Rig, plus 2D/3D design, installation, and a complimentary training session, the school now has a modern fitness space built for growth and performance. We delivered a balanced space for strength, conditioning, and confidence.
Oran Park Anglican College (OPAC)
OPAC dreamed big: a state-of-the-art facility to support student health and staff wellbeing. The result? A gym that embodies their vision for future-focused fitness.
Oran Park Anglican College partnered with Gym Direct to completely transform their outdated gym into a modern, functional space. With 2D/3D design, delivery, and installation, we created a facility that supports student wellbeing, athletic performance, and OPAC’s commitment to holistic education.
Woonona High School
After floods destroyed most of their equipment, Woonona High School turned to Gym Direct for a complete commercial gym fitout. With 1-on-1 consultation, 2D/3D design, delivery, and installation, we rebuilt the space into a modern fitness facility that supports both students and staff.
Woonona focused on wellbeing—both physical and mental. Their fitout is now a modern, engaging space that staff and students genuinely enjoy.
“The process was easy and stress-free from concept to completion – backed by ongoing support from the Gym Direct team.”
- Simon, Woonona High School
Make It Yours With Custom Branding
No two schools are alike; so why should their gyms be? With our custom branding options, you can match equipment colours to school colours or even add your logo. It’s a simple way to build pride and make the space feel like an extension of your campus identity.
More Than Just Equipment: Why It Matters
Here’s the bigger picture: a well-designed gym is more than racks and treadmills.
It’s:
-
A launchpad for lifelong healthy habits
-
A safe space to boost mental health
-
A confidence builder through movement and strength
-
A hub for staff wellbeing, not just student fitness
In short, it’s an investment in your school’s culture.
At Gym Direct, we’re not just installing commercial gyms; we’re building environments where students and staff can thrive. With our Education Australia certification, hands-on training, and ongoing support, you can be confident your school gym will be stress-free, future-proof, and tailored to your needs.
