Students, teachers and parents at McClelland Secondary College are celebrating with news that modern buildings are on the way.
The Member for Frankston Paul Edbrooke MP yesterday announced $5.8 million from the 2016/17 Victorian Budget will go towards an upgrade to the school’s ageing facilities, including a new school hall. Ensuring students have the modern spaces they need to learn.
Minister for Education James Merlino and Member for Carrum Sonya Kilkenny visited the school today to join in the celebrations.
It’s the latest step in making Victoria the Education State, where every student gets the chance to fulfil their potential and can access a school with great facilities.
Building, fixing, upgrading, and modernising Victoria’s schools gives our students and teachers the learning environment they need to achieve their best.
Throughout the state, hundreds of new school infrastructure projects are underway, just like the one set to start at McClelland Secondary College.
