WHITTLESEA: MPs at Wollert school opening
Wirrigirri Primary School in Wollert received a visit from Mill Park MLA Lily D’Ambrosio (pictured) with the Deputy Premier Ben Carroll and Sonja Terpstra to officially open the school.
“This vibrant new school is a fantastic addition to our Wollert community, which has been flourishing and expanding with time,” Ms D’Ambrosio said.
“The school was made possible by the Allan Labor Government’s investment, and construction has been carried out in stages.
“This modern facility currently features a learning neighbourhood with a presentation space, classrooms, a quiet area, student toilets and a staff planning area as well as a playground with a grassed area and play equipment.
“Once fully completed, because works are continuing throughout this year, the school will include an administration and library building, three learning neighbourhoods, a community hub, hard courts, a car park, a sports field and a commercial kitchen.
“I was also pleased to meet with the interim president of the school council Amanda and interim school council member Eleni. “They are very excited parents who are really committed to this school providing the best education for their families.
“We are also building a kindergarten which will be co-located with the school. That is expected to be completed this year and will take enrolments for next year.
“This is all about us making sure that our kids, no matter what their age, have the best start in life through a wonderful education,” Ms D’Ambrosio said.
