About the project

The funding was used to help upgrade the school’s weights room.

As part of the Education State vision, the Victorian Government has set a goal to increase pride and confidence in government schools. The School Pride and Sports Fund is one way of achieving that goal.

Funding is provided for upgrade projects totalling under $1 million, which will help students, teachers and the community to feel proud of their school.

The fund also helps​​ ensure more new gymnasiums are competition grade and can be used by community sporting clubs

The school was allocated $200,000 from Round 3 of the School Pride & Sports Fund.

About the project

​We redeveloped the college. We refurbished and expanded the existing technology facilities to deliver a new science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) centre. ​​

Facilities

The works provide the college with purpose-built learning spaces that promote creativity, innovation and critical thinking. The design responds to the school's priority to provide innovative curriculum that allow students to explore new and emerging sciences and technologies. ​

A range of flexible and adaptable learning spaces support different modes of learning including:

  • grouped learning neighbourhoods,
  • quiet reflection spaces,
  • a central gathering and breakout space,
  • a meeting room with resources zone,
  • integrated staff workspaces, and
  • outdoor learning areas that provide enhanced indoor/outdoor connections.​​

Funding

In the 2017–18 State Budget, $4.5 million was allocated to this school.

In the 2016–17 State Budget, the school shared in $12 million planning funding.
