Groundbreaking ceremony

On Friday 18th October the school was honoured with a visit from the Minister for Education and Deputy Premier Prue Car. Alongside her was Federal Member for Reid, Sally Sitou. The groundbreaking ceremony or “sod turn” was a symbolic moment to mark the beginning of new building works now that all the demolition has been done.

The P&C attended this ceremony alongside student leaders from year 9 and 10 and representatives from the Senior Leadership Team. The ceremony also made the news.

The major upgrade will see 3 new buildings, including 40 new classrooms and the removal of 20 demountables from the school grounds once the new buildings are finished. As part of the upgrade project some minor refurbishment of 36 existing classrooms will also take place.

The upgrade will ensure the school has capacity for the number of students enrolled both now and in the near future, ensuringfamilies have the option to enrol their young person in their local co-educational high school.
