The arts facilities at Croydon Primary School have been given a makeover boosting functionality and creativity for students.

North-Eastern Metropolitan Region MP Sonja Terpstra opened the new building on Tuesday 13 February.

The new building, funded by the State government, is also equipped with brand-new all-inclusive toilet facilities as well as an upgraded outdoor recreation garden area.

The $1.347 million upgrade has replenished what was an ageing toilet block and provided a more inviting garden space for the children to enjoy.

“It was great to see these upgrades finished, and how excited the students are to be able to express themselves creatively in the modernised spaces,” Ms Terpstra said.

“I’m looking forward to seeing some of the great creative works students at Croydon Primary School will be producing in the years to come.”

In the last nine years, the Victorian Government has put $14.9 billion into building new schools and more than 1,940 school upgrades.

Modern learning environments help develop creative thinking, promote STEM literacy, and inspire learning for life – critical skills for future success.
