Bellarine electorate schools

Ms NEVILLE: On another matter, on Thursday, 26 July, I had the pleasure of opening the Bellarine Secondary College later years centre. This fantastic new centre will provide senior students—VCE and VCAL—completing their all-important final years of school with state-of-the-art facilities, including classrooms, seminar rooms, quiet study spaces, a communal meeting place and a student kitchen. Working in partnership with the school, the state provided $8.9 million for the project, ensuring Bellarine secondary students will have the best facilities in which to learn and study.

On the same day, on another matter, I was pleased to turn the first sod on the Clifton Springs Primary School upgrade works. The $15.6 million project will completely rebuild the school, making a great school even better. I thank both principals, Wayne Johannesen and Meg Parker, and their teams.
