Melton students will be revelling in upgraded surrounds, thanks to the unveiling of new multi-million dollar facilities.
Melton Secondary College and Melton Specialist School will share the $5.5 million revamped facilities that include an administration building, library, allied health consulting suites and a multi-purpose hall.
The hall, which features a food technology kitchen and a dining area, will be available for community use after school hours or for school events to encourage community involvement with the school.
State Education Minister James Merlino was on hand to formally open the buildings last week, calling the upgrade a major win for both schools.
“This exciting new education precinct will strengthen the bond between both schools while providing teachers the modern facilities they need to deliver the 21st century education students deserve,” Mr Merlino said.
Local MP Steve McGhie was equally happy.
“Not only will these impressive new spaces be enjoyed by students at both Melton Secondary College and Melton Specialist School, but they will also be used by the wider community,” he said.
