Tarneit Plains primary school

Luba GRIGOROVITCH (Kororoit) (09:50): This week I was joined by the Minister for Education in my electorate of Kororoit to announce that this government has acquired land in Truganina to build yet another new school, and I have got to say the community is rapt about it. For the interim it is going to be known as the Tarneit Plains primary school. This is the latest land acquisition and represents yet another investment in our kids in Melbourne’s west, making sure that our students and all Victorian students have access to better schools and resources. The Andrews Labor government has built more new schools over the past five years than any other state in Australia. We are now one step closer to building the Tarneit Plains primary school thanks to this announcement. We have listened to local families, and that is why this school is part of the Andrews Labor government’s commitment to deliver 100 new schools by 2026. The Andrews Labor government is investing record funding in our schools to ensure that we can deliver modern and cutting-edge educational infrastructure so that every child has access to great schools and quality education that matters to them and is close to where they live. That is what the Andrews Labor government is doing. They are doing this for all Victorians.
