Announcing Funding for our New Senior Building
St Bernadette’s in partnership with Jackson Taylor, State Member of Parliament for Bayswater were successful in our application for State Government funding for knocking the East Wing down (currently SUR and SUW) and building a new Senior Learning Community!
New St B’s Classrooms Open
The brand new senior learning building at St Bernadette’s Primary School The Basin is open. I was absolutely stoked to secure $1.65 million from the State Government to see this one happen. The new learning hub has delivered bright, modern spaces, integrated outdoor areas, and fit for purpose classrooms. And I’ll tell you what, from principal Peter, through to their whole school community, they’re a ripper, supportive team. My thanks to our partners at Melbourne Archdiocese Catholic Schools (MACS) who helped deliver this project – Jackson Taylor: State Member for Bayswater
