Outrageous. St Joseph's Catholic Primary School in my electorate will receive $185,500 in 2018. Kairos Community College—another school in Deception Bay which does great work—will receive $48,500 next year. Over the 10-year plan—let's just throw that in—they will receive another $3 million. Kippa-Ring State School, which is a government school in my electorate, will receive $44,700 next year if this bill goes ahead and is passed by the Senate. Mango Hill State School—a great little school; Tracy Egan, who is the principal there, is doing a wonderful job—will receive $90,500 next year. Moreton Downs State School will receive $98,400 next year. Mueller College—another great school, pre to 12—will receive $516,400. It is a big school in my electorate. Norris Road State School will receive $76,000 next year. North Lakes State College will receive $388,800 next year. Redcliffe Special School will receive $52,700 next year. Redcliffe State High School will receive an increase of $189,500. That is on top of the state government increase. I am not going to have time to run through all my schools. I am going to have mention the rest of them in my contribution on the appropriation bills. This bill is fair; it is funded. Those opposite are playing politics, and it is outrageous that they do this with schools.
