What a pleasure it was to join my community in Cranbourne West for the official opening of Quarters Primary School alongside the Victorian Minister for Education, Natalie Hutchins; the member for Cranbourne, Pauline Richards; and the school's principal, Liz Davey. The tour of the new school highlighted the fantastic facilities the students will enjoy. These include a fully operational library, specialist teaching areas for science and food technology, collaborative teaching spaces, a community-hub building with a gymnasium, and several sporting venues just to name a few.
The excitement of students starting the year at this wonderful new school could be felt throughout my interactions with them and their parents. I am confident the students of Quarters Primary School will be nurtured and grow in a safe and welcoming environment. I thank the school leadership and staff for inviting me to share this special moment with them. As the member for one of the fastest growing regions in the country, I am glad that there's continuous investment in our community's education infrastructure. I can't wait to visit the school again and check on each student's progress.
