Healesville High School will receive over $161,000 to maintain the school facilities for students.
The Planned Maintenance Program (PMP) funds high-priority maintenance issues across Victoria’s government schools.
The funding enables schools to undertake essential work in classrooms and other school buildings such as fixing roofs and replacing windows, maintaining ramps, painting, and resurfacing floors, as well as some external works like improving pathways.
Deputy Premier and education minister Ben Carroll said this latest maintenance blitz would keep every Victorian school up-to-date, so that every child can access a world-class education in a world-class school.
“We are constantly reviewing our schools’ buildings and facilities to make sure every single classroom is safe, engaging, and will complement the top-class education Victorian students deserve,” he said.
Schools in the Eildon electorate are among 158 schools across the state to share in over $47.9 million in funding for maintenance projects under PMP.
These schools are:
Marysville Primary School will receive just over $516,000
Middle Kinglake Primary School will receive just over $181,000
Healesville High School will receive just over $161,000
Toolangi Primary School will receive just over $106,000
