Narre Warren South electorate ministerial visit

Gary MAAS (Narre Warren South) (13:00): It really was fantastic recently to welcome the Premier to the outer south-east to see some of the state initiatives that are supporting my electorate of Narre Warren South. Our first stop was Endeavour Hills police station alongside the member for Narre Warren North to catch up with some of our hardworking local police officers and talk about the incredible work that they do. Endeavour Hills station is also assisting the Narre Warren police station while those upgrade works and building works are taking place. I thank them for welcoming us and I thank all the duty officers who stopped by for a chat. It was an opportunity to thank these officers for the dedicated work that they keep doing to keep our community safe.

We then headed over to Lyndhurst Secondary College in my electorate, which is in the planning and design phases of the $13.6 million upgrade announced in last year’s state budget. I would like to thank principal Eloise Haynes for taking us through the school’s excellent pathway programs that are on offer to students, including the impressive trade skills centre with its fully equipped auto shop. The Premier and I enjoyed talking to students undertaking the VET automotive course about their plans post school. I thank the Premier for her visit, and I know many students appreciate the educational pathways that are now available to them to gain the skills they need to access their dream job.
