Kim O’KEEFFE (Shepparton) (14:45): (292) My constituent question is to the Minister for Education, and I ask: what is the future plan for the current Verney Road School site when the school relocates to the former Wanganui Park Secondary school site? This will leave another redundant site in a residential area. We have had a number of former secondary school sites sitting locked up and redundant since the amalgamation of all four of our secondary state schools, which are also all located in residential areas. People living in these locations want community pride returned to their neighbourhoods. The school sites have had boarded up windows and the area is an eyesore, with the Verney Road school site looking like the next one in line.
