A happy, safe learning environment is so important for students, teachers, and school communities. 

As Duty Senator for Braddon, I was very pleased to recently announce that Don College will receive $25,000 for upgrading or improving existing outdoor learning spaces, and repairs or maintenance to school facilities.

The funding is part of the Federal Labor Government’s Schools Upgrade Fund and delivers on an important 2022 election commitment. Don College is one of twenty schools in the North West and West Coast that will receive a share of over $455,000 in funding.

More than 1,300 schools nationally will benefit from $32 million in grants to upgrade school infrastructure and equipment.

I am looking forward to visiting the school in the near future.
