Melissa HORNE (Williamstown – Minister for Casino, Gaming and Liquor Regulation, Minister for Local Government, Minister for Ports and Freight, Minister for Roads and Road Safety) (10:48): It was very welcome news in my electorate this week when it was announced that two schools will receive more than $5 million in funding for much-needed upgrades. St Mary’s Primary School in Altona will receive $2.4 million to complete stage 1A of the school’s master plan to rebuild six learning areas of the school, including collaboration and outdoor learning spaces. Having recently toured the school with the principal Sonia Riccardi, I know just how welcome these upgrades will be.

St Margaret Mary’s in Spotswood will also construct new learning areas, student amenities and breakout spaces and refurbish the school entry, staff workplaces and meeting rooms with $3.6 million thanks to the latest round of funding. This will provide new modern spaces for students and staff to expand the school’s capacity for the future.
