Constituency questions

Frankston electorate


Frankston electorate

Mr EDBROOKE (Frankston) (14:44): (6389) My constituency question is for the Minister for Education. Overport Primary School is a magnificent school in my community and one of the last schools to get any sort of major funding from the Andrews Labor government. The principal and student leaders contacted my offices recently to arrange for me to visit and view the unstable and unsafe running track and badly deteriorating soccer grounds. The school is seeking funding with a view to having these items upgraded and, in the case of the running track, made safe for students to utilise. The school has applied unsuccessfully in previous years for funding for these items to be redeveloped, but I ask the minister to review the documentation and applications for funding and consider a visit to the school with a view to seeing what opportunities lie there for this running track and soccer field to be redeveloped.
