Lang Lang Primary School

Ms CRUGNALE (Bass) (12:59): A special assembly—a special celebration. In March I joined Lang Lang Primary School principal Sharon Mitchell, her wonderful dedicated and professional team, school captains, their entire school community and local representatives to celebrate the completion of a well-deserved major upgrade—our election commitment delivered. I was met by the delightful, engaged and energetic school captains—Emma, Lelaina, Bree and Harry—who were proud as to take me on a tour, chatting all the way.

This $1.5 million investment has transformed the school’s classrooms, giving students and staff a new learning environment, flexibility of spaces, breakout areas, plenty of natural light and kitchen facilities, and all with an aspect onto beautifully landscaped areas so students can achieve their best. This school is at the heart of the Lang Lang community. We were joined by representatives from the local community bank, Rotary and Lions clubs, the community op shop and Western Port Landcare, who support and contribute at every turn, as do many more local groups, clubs and businesses. What does this upgrade mean to the grade 2 students? Mahana said:

My favourite part of the new areas is the kitchen. We have done science and made pancakes already!

Evie loves all the bright colours—orange, blue and green. They are her favourite colours. Archie is super impressed with the new decks. He said:

They are awesome, we go out there a lot … Today we made grass heads as part of science.

Great work, Ardent Architects and builders Roubaix Projects. Next on— (Time expired)
