A BUILDER has been appointed for the $6 million upgrade at Newcomb Secondary College.<\/p>\n

Last month, Bellarine MP Lisa Neville and Geelong MP Christine Couzens announced Allmore Constructions Pty Ltd would carry out the upgrade, which will refurbish the college’s A Block including music spaces, staff areas and general purpose classrooms.<\/p>\n

Unused and underused spaces will be transformed into science and technology spaces.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is great news for the current and future students at Newcomb Secondary College<\/a>, including of course the growing community of Leopold,” Ms Neville said.<\/p>\n

“This school will provide A Grade facilities for students for many years to come\u201d.<\/p>\n

Ms Couzens said the upgrades were part of the school building boom happening right across Victoria.<\/p>\n
