THE state government is making sure students in the Carrum electorate get the first-class facilities they deserve, and better learning outcomes with upgrades.
Sonya Kilkenny MP, Member for Carrum recently congratulated Seaford Primary School, one of 58 successful schools that will share in $25 million for a range of small-scale refurbishments through the 2024/25 round of the government’s Capital Works Fund. Seaford Primary will receive $499,969 to build new toilets.
The state government has invested $16.9 billion over the past ten years to build new schools and deliver more than 2,000 school upgrades − supporting more than 26,000 jobs in construction and associated industries.
“I am delighted that Seaford Primary School will get new and upgraded toilet facilities,” said Member for Carrum Sonya Kilkenny. “It’s the smaller upgrades that can really make a big difference. This is just one of the upgrades we’re delivering to make our local schools the very best.”
The Victorian School Building Authority will work with successful schools from early 2025 to deliver their projects.
All construction is set to be finished by the end of May 2026.
