WHITTLESEA Secondary College is set to benefit from a $11.7 million commitment as part of the 2023-24 Budget.
The school will be one of many across Victoria to share in $2.1 billion in funding for planning, with more modern classrooms, science labs and libraries, as well as better school gyms and sporting facilities.
Member for Yan Yean Lauren Kathage said the funding would help support children to do their best in the classroom and beyond.
“At the election I said that a re-elected Andrews Labor Government would upgrade Whittlesea Secondary College. In this year’s Budget we have begun that process by kickstarting the planning for these exciting upgrades,” she said.
“Students excel when they can learn in state-of-the-art facilities at their local school. That’s why the Andrews Labor Government has delivered in this budget planning funding to the $11.7 million commitment to upgrade Whittlesea Secondary College.”
The building and upgrading of school across the state will also support more than 3800 jobs in construction.
