The new campus sits on a 15-hectare property in NUVALI, a development in Calamba, Laguna that is seven times the size of the Makati CBD. In its first phase, the main grade school building and part of the Grade School gymnasium will be built. In its ultimate development, the campus will have buildings for Primary, Middle, and High School, and will include a separate library building, auditorium, administration building, and provisions for residences and dormitories. The plan also calls for two gymnasiums with different sports facilities, swimming pool, and two football fields.
The school is designed as a school for 21st-century learning. The campus grounds and facilities will provide for different types of learning. It will be a digital school, equipped with the proper IT infrastructure to bring a whole world of resources into the classroom. It will also enable the school to promote 1-to-1 computer-based instruction that will develop self-directed learners.
Several alumni have indicated their commitment to donate for the construction and for the scholarships. For major donors, various buildings and facilities are being offered for naming rights. In the coming weeks and months, the fundraising efforts will intensify to raise the funds needed.

While the school will be grounded on the same mission and vision of Xavier School, it is mandated to allot “25% of enrollment for financially-challenged students on scholarship.” This, according to Fr. Zuloaga, is a great challenge; but can be achieved with the support of the Xavier community. In this way, the school not only expands the ministry of Xavier School, but will also enhance its mission in education by integrating students from different socio-economic segments. Programs will be designed “to enable the presence of these scholars to have a transforming influence on the culture of the school as a whole.”
