Students at Rainbow Ridge Steiner School at Lillian Rock will benefit from the refurbished general learning areas and new administration building, the Federal Member for Page Kevin Hogan said today as he officially opened the new facilities.
“Rainbow Ridge Steiner School is a great community school, but it needed more modern learning facilities,” he said.
“That is why I was happy to secure a grant of $150,000 to make this project possible.
“The new facilities include the construction of a new administration building, including a reception area, office and a meeting room.
“The existing staff room and small learning area will also be refurbished to create two large learning areas with break-out spaces.
“These new learning spaces take into account the latest in educational research and will see students learn more effectively.
“This is about ensuring students have the support they need to succeed in the classroom.”
