Last week our children moved into the six new classrooms, common areas, computer laboratories. Staff are using the new facilities for planning and student wellbeing. The grant given was $3,000,000. The cost of the building was $3,001,780. Hence the project came in at 99.9% on budget thanks to the close supervision of our Principal Lucy Jackanic and Deputy Principal Shane Crawford who, with myself, attended site meetings every fortnight since 8 September 2009 including school holidays plus numerous discussions with the builders, architects and computer contractors.
Further improvements will continue, but these will be funded by parents through school fees. A netball court and improved fencing around the school site are under discussion.
