In late 2017, approximately one third of the school's multipurpose courts were demolished so Norwood's new gymnasium facilities could be built.

On the second day of the 2019 school year the first ever indoor full college assembly was held in the gymnasium with a number of special guests.

The new STEM centre was constructed at a factory in Kilsyth separated into modules, transported to Norwood and reassembled on site to a satisfactory level such that the external appearance of the building could be observed on the 2019 college open night.

Parkwood Secondary College closed in a positive fashion as the result of a decision of its School Council.

Norwood Secondary College Has gained some Government funding for upgraded and new facilities to be built at its current location in Byron Street.
