Oakleigh Primary School and Kindergarten

Steve DIMOPOULOS (Oakleigh – Minister for Tourism, Sport and Major Events, Minister for Creative Industries) (09:48): The Minister for Education and I also attended the opening of the new buildings and basketball courts at Oakleigh Primary School. A major upgrade and refurbishment of this school was made possible by the $13 million invested by our Labor government. Thanks to the architects and the builders who brought the vision to life, while retaining the hundred-year-old features in the old building. I also want to thank principal Michele Nolan and all her staff for the work they do and the very first-class education they provide. I also would like to make special mention of former principal Jack Fisher, who advocated so strongly and was a fierce advocate and inspiration for the Oakleigh school community.
