Glen Waverley electorate
John MULLAHY (Glen Waverley) (14:41): (1111) My constituency question is directed to the Minister for Education. What is the Allan Labor government doing to support local schools in the Glen Waverley district, such as Vermont Primary School? My electorate is home to some of the best schools in the state. From outstanding NAPLAN and VCE results to thriving sport, art and drama programs, we take pride in the excellence of our schools. One of these great schools is Vermont Primary School on Nurlendi Road, led by principal Jessica Mann, the leadership team, the staff and the school council, which is led by president Lisa Portell. Our community has rallied behind their plans to get a master plan to upgrade their buildings. Originally opened in 1869, the school has served our community with distinction for over 150 years. We want to ensure that the facilities are modernised to meet the needs of a growing school population. I look forward to working with the minister in presenting our community petition to fund a master plan for the school, and I look forward to his response.
