I was honoured to attend the opening of the sports centre at Lake Joondalup Baptist College on 24 July 2015. It represents a $6 million investment. The landmark two-storey building, located prominently on the corner of Shenton Avenue and Joondalup Drive, features: two indoor sporting courts; six teaching spaces; gymnasium and change room facilities; and staff and seminar rooms, with storage and catering facilities. The sports centre features a modern architectural design, a superb interior fit-out and use of natural light.

I acknowledge the work of: a very distinguished educator in Principal Dawn Clements; Deputy Principal Penny Houghton; the Chairman of the College Board, Pastor Stephen Nosworthy; the Chair of Finance, Mr Alf Binks; and the Chair of Projects, Pastor Wayne Belcher. Lake Joondalup Baptist College is a kindergarten to year 12 school with an enrolment of 1,436 students. The college has developed a reputation for providing its students with a well-rounded education, balancing academic achievement with artistic, sporting and cultural endeavour, equipping students with essential life skills through excellent pastoral care The staff of the college and the school community are to be commended for their dedication to education and particularly for investing in a modern facility which will improve learning outcomes for all students.
