Glen Waverley electorate
John MULLAHY (Glen Waverley) (14:53): (1207) My question is to the Deputy Premier and Minister for Education. How is the Victorian Labor government supporting infrastructure investment in my community, particularly in high-demand education precincts like Glen Waverley? Glen Waverley is experiencing rapid growth, driven in part by our outstanding local public schools such as Glen Waverley Secondary College. Glenny consistently ranks among Victoria’s top public schools. In 2024 it again ranked in the top 10, a continued trend in academic excellence. This success reflects the leadership of principal Suzanne Plant, her dedicated team and the committed school council. The school’s 2022–26 strategic plan prioritises modernising facilities to support contemporary learning. However, with no new facilities delivered in the past 15 years the school has had to install portable classrooms on the edge of its oval to accommodate enrolment growth. At a recent school council meeting infrastructure needs were raised as a major concern. With enrolments currently at 2410 and projected to be more than 2500 next year, it is clear that Glen Waverley Secondary College needs further support.
