Auburn South Primary School

 Ryan BATCHELOR (Southern Metropolitan) (22:12): (1211) Just on the adjournment tonight, I want to make a note of the absolute tragedy that occurred this afternoon at Auburn South Primary School, where a very tragic incident has seen the death of one of the students at that school and four other students injured. I know many in the Parliament, from the Premier, the Deputy Premier and the Minister for Education –

David Davis interjected.

Ryan BATCHELOR: I was just going to say the member for Hawthorn. You did not need to interrupt. There might be moments when you can just hold it back for 2 seconds.

Lots of people have expressed their concern for the welfare of these families and for the school community. It is a great school. I was there last year and spoke with principal Marcus Wicher. It was a place that was filled with joy, and I can only imagine the sadness that is there today. So the action I seek from the Minister for Education is for him, through the department, to provide all the necessary support that is required for this school through this incredibly difficult time.
