South Bunbury Education Support Centre.
The project includes a
new state-of-the-art early childhood learning block to support some of the
school's youngest learners.
The upgrades comprise three
classrooms for kindergarten and pre-primary students, kitchen facilities, an
internal store, and staff and student toilets.
Surrounding the new
building are low-maintenance, water wise gardens, complemented by a new covered
playground for outdoor activities.
The project was designed
by H+H Architects and built by Hacer Group Pty Ltd.
Since 2017, the State
Government has invested more than $4.4 billion into building and upgrading
education facilities across Western Australia.
Comments attributed to Education Minister Dr Tony Buti:
"These fantastic new learning facilities will ensure the young students
at South Bunbury Education Support Centre will have the best start possible to
their education.
"This project is another example of our commitment to ensuring Western
Australian students learn in modern educational facilities."
Comments attributed to Bunbury MLA Don Punch:
"I know these upgrades are a welcome addition for local families with
young children and I am thrilled that we could deliver this key election
commitment, which I campaigned strongly for.
"This important project will mean Bunbury Education Support Centre
students in our community can have their educational needs met from the early
years of learning."
