Constituency questions

Bayswater electorate


Bayswater electorate

Mr TAYLOR (Bayswater) (14:43): (6509) Templeton Primary in Wantirna is a fantastic local school, and I am super proud that the Andrews Labor government is delivering a major upgrade to ensure they have the 21st-century learning facilities they absolutely deserve. So my constituency question is to the Minister for Education: when will construction start on the $9.2 million of works committed to by the Andrews Labor government? In last year’s budget I was stoked to secure these funds to deliver new state-of-the-art learning spaces and new facilities for Temps. I remember announcing it and the reception was next level, not far off in fact the level when the Premier came down to check and inspect works and how it is tracking. Now, since the announcement the school community has been working with principal Rod McKinlay to progress the project with the building authority. I have seen some of the concepts, and they look absolutely amazing. I know the community and I are keen to know when we can expect works to start on these really, really huge upgrades at Templeton Primary.
