The state government has released the designs for the upgrade of Grovedale West Primary School.
South Barwon MP Darren Cheeseman released the renders of the new building, designed by Select Architects, last week, which will be built as part of a $6.559 million upgrade of the school.
“The Andrews Labor Government is proud to be investing $6.56 million into upgrading the school, which includes this exciting new building,” he said.
“Inside, students and staff will benefit from flexible and adaptable learning spaces, as well as new toilets, kitchen facilities and staff work spaces.
“Outside, students will be able to explore new outdoor learning spaces and landscaping.
“We’re making sure that our schools have the best facilities, our classrooms have the best teachers and that every child is given every chance to succeed.
“Grovedale families are a step closer to getting the great local school facilities their kids need to thrive.
“I am proud to be delivering this much-needed upgrade, and I look forward to the start of construction.”
The Grovedale West Primary upgrade was funded in the 2020-2021 Victorian Budget, along with a $7.64 million commitment towards the Bellaire Primary School Upgrade.
Mr Cheeseman said the upgrade of Bellaire Primary School in Highton was about upgrading and modernising the school, including a new learning centre and the refurbishment of Block B and partial demolition of Block A.
