Forest Street Primary School
Juliana ADDISON (Wendouree) (10:24): I was delighted to recently visit Forest Street Primary School in Wendouree to celebrate the opening of the $6.3 million upgrade to block A, which is known as the foundation, 1 and 2 and admin wing. The building has new classrooms, new admin space and a beautiful new library that is flooded with light. It is a wonderful school community, and I know that the school prides itself on providing a friendly and caring community. You see that every time you visit the school. These new spaces provide opportunities for innovative teaching and learning as well as an opportunity for outdoor play, which we know is so important. The leadership of Jillian Burt as principal, Lisa and the whole team of teachers creates an environment where kids want to come to school. They want to learn. Even the night that I was there they were going to have a sleepover, showing how dedicated the teachers are to making sure that the beautiful kids who go to Forest Street Primary have a fantastic time at school every day.
