FUNDING from the state government has enabled Our Lady Star of the Sea Primary School in Ocean Grove to begin construction on a new multi-purpose building.<\/p>\n
The new facilities will include general learning and collaborative areas as well as staffing and storage spaces. One of the car parks at the school will also be extended.<\/p>\n
In addition to $2 million of the Our Lady Star of the Sea invested themselves, the school received $2 million for the project from the state government’s Non-Government Schools Capital Fund.<\/p>\n
Bellarine MP Lisa Neville said the project will help the school maintain its high standards.<\/p>\n
“Our Lady Star of the Sea is a great school led by Principal Kerryn Sells and I have been pleased to work with, and on behalf of the school in securing government funding.<\/p>\n
“The upgraded Our Lady Star of the Sea School will deliver the very best modern education facilities for its students and I congratulate the school for its hard work.”<\/p>\n
Magellan Projects PL is undertaking slab excavation works at the school.<\/p>\n
The project is expected to be complete by mid-2021.<\/p>\n
