Sports Complex: More Than a Building, a Space for Us to Come Together

The Colegio Bolivar Sports Complex, one of the most important projects within the Masters Facility Plan, continues to advance steadily and according to schedule. This 8,200 m², three-level facility aims to meet the needs of the educational program and become a gathering space for sports, wellness, and the community.

The project began in 2016 with the first phase—the pool area—which was inaugurated in February 2018 during the school’s 70th-anniversary celebration. That symbolic milestone marked the beginning of a transformation that is now taking shape with the construction of the remaining modules: the main coliseum and the gymnasium for the Early Childhood and Primary sections, known as Mafalda.

Civil works for this new stage began in March 2025 and are currently in the structural phase, consolidating the frameworks that will define each projected space. The main coliseum—featuring a central court, rooms for gymnastics, aerobics, and fitness training, changing rooms, teachers’ offices, a café, and storage areas—has its concrete structure nearly completed. In the coming months, the final service slab will be poured, which will house the ventilation and air-conditioning systems—an essential step before installing the roof.

Meanwhile, the Mafalda area, which includes covered multipurpose courts, has progressed quickly thanks to its proximity to the Primary School section. Its structure is already finished and currently undergoing roofing, which will soon allow for the construction of restrooms, bleachers, and interior finishes. According to the schedule, this area is expected to be completed by January 2026, while the entire complex—including the coliseum—is projected to be finished by June or July of the same year.

The construction process, supervised by the firm Francisco Angulo M. Ingenieros, has progressed smoothly, overcoming the challenges typical of a project of this magnitude. Once completed, Colegio Bolivar will have top-tier sports facilities that will expand opportunities for holistic development and offer new possibilities for community connection and growth for the entire educational community.
