Students at The Grange P-12 College are a step closer to getting the facilities they need for a great start in life, with an architect appointed to design the school’s exciting upgrade.

Member for Tarneit Sarah Connolly today announced that Johns Lyng Makesafe Emergency Builders has been appointed to design the school’s $110,500 upgrade.

The upgrade will see improvements to sensory garden and new play equipment as part of the Victorian Government’s Inclusive Schools Fund Program.

The Andrews Labor Government has invested $5.6 billion to deliver more than 1,400 school upgrades, supporting over 5,000 construction jobs for Victorians.

Under the Labor Government’s school building boom, a total of 100 new schools will open by 2026, ensuring every child has a great local school and a great start in life.

This building boom will continue over the coming years, with the Government having appointed builders to start delivering 11 schools across the state that will open in 2020 and 14 schools that will open in 2021.

The Labor Government is building the Education State to ensure that every student can access a great local school and get a quality education.
