About the project

We reconfigured music spaces to create better staff work areas, and refurbished the woodworking and bike repair shop to create flexible facilities with new system technology and maker spaces. We transformed underutilised areas into science and technology spaces.

Fire had caused significant damage to a disused building at this school. This building had been scheduled for demolition before the fire, and we have now safely completed that work.

Funding

In the 2019–20 State Budget, the school received $600,000. In 2020, the school received $5.4 million.

About the project

We helped build a sensory garden that allows students to learn in a non-traditional classroom setting. This new area includes a stage and gathering space, timber decking, stepping stones and synthetic turf mounds.

Funding

In 2018, $200,000 was allocated to the school in Round 4 of the Inclusive Schools Fund.
