$900,000 upgrade for Cathedral College
Staff and students at Cathedral College in Wangaratta will benefit with Pat Farmer opening new state-of-the-art facilities worth $900,000 today.
“The College can continue to develop its stimulating learning programmes, now that it is better equipped to provide its 202 students with the best possible learning experience,” Mr Farmer said.
“This is an important investment to build the strength of our local schools, and will bring significant benefits to the local community,” Mrs Mirabella said.
The project included the construction of a new science laboratory and preparation room, an Information Technology laboratory, two large classrooms, a seminar room, a sports store room and two staff office areas.
“The Howard Government contributed $550,000 through the Capital Grants Programme and the school community made a significant contribution of $351,126,” Mr Farmer said.
“A school should be a place where teachers and the community work together with all levels of government, to give young people the skills and knowledge that will help them fulfil their dreams.
“The Howard Government has allocated as estimated $9.7 billion for schools and students nationally in 2007-08. This includes an estimated $871 million for capital works and infrastructure.”
There has never been a period of greater investment in our schools.
