Hampton Park Secondary College

Mr MAAS (Narre Warren South) (14:23): I was delighted to recently attend Hampton Park Secondary College to officially open their stage 1 works, which include refurbished and modernised classrooms and the conversion of the old gym into a senior learning centre. It was fantastic to be at the school as yet another project was delivered by this Andrews Labor government. The $2.62 million stage 1 is just part of an overall commitment of $14.5 million to modernise Hampton Park Secondary College and help deliver the education that our local students deserve. The new senior learning centre is a space where students can achieve the best learning outcomes and develop critical skills for their future success.

We also celebrated the doctors in schools program, which was recently introduced there. Some $43 million, as we all know, has been invested in that program for the terrific outcomes that it produces. I would really like to thank principal Wayne Haworth, his teaching team, his leadership team and of course all the students who do magnificent work out at Hampton Park Secondary College. They have been really patient while all these works have been going on. I really look forward to being there for the stage 2 and stage 3 works as they open over the coming years.
