A Clyde North primary school is getting extra space for students to study with State Government funding for two state-of-the-art, double-storey relocatable classroom to meet growing student enrolment.

Bass MP Jordan Crugnale announced on Monday 30 August that Ramlegh Park Primary School would receive the new modern classrooms to offer flexibility to manage enrolment growth in time for the 2022 school year.

Ramlegh Park Primary School is among 17 schools across Victoria to share in 25 of these buildings for 2022.

The relocatable buildings come complete with double-glazed windows, improved thermal insulation to reduce heat loss, acoustic insulation to reduce internal noise reverberation, and are built to an energy-efficient design.

“We are delivering a modern, two-storey relocatable building for Ramlegh Park Primary School because we know that quality infrastructure gives our students and teachers the learning environments they need to achieve their best,” Ms Crugnale said.

“Going two-storey means they still have plenty of open play spaces at this wonderful local school.”

Ramlegh Park Primary School Principal Linda Corcoran welcomed the government’s announcement.

“We are excited to be part of the growing community of Clyde North and thrilled to have modern two-storey classrooms that will allow for this growth while keeping our spacious playground.”

The State Government allocated $114 million through the Victorian Budget 2021/22 to the Relocatable Buildings Program.
