St Paul’s new Drouin Primary School Build

St Paul’s Anglican Grammar School’s newest campus, which opened its doors in Drouin in January, is making significant progress with its building program.

The school recently marked a key milestone with the formal ‘Turning of the Sod’ ceremony for the Stage 2 Development of a Primary School Learning Centre to accommodate growing enrolments.

The centre will feature six paired learning areas that open out onto a collaborative learning ‘street’ for shared specialist programs, seamlessly integrating with the natural environment under an extended roof to incorporate outdoor play-based learning activities.

The St Paul’s Drouin Junior School Learning Centre project is supported by the Victorian Government’s capital grant of $6M through the Victorian School Building Authority’s Building Fund for Non-Government Schools – Independent Schools that will assist with the construction of the centre.

The ceremony was led by the school’s Deputy Principal, Gordon Oldham, with distinguished guests including the Hon. Harriet Shing MP (Member for Eastern Victoria), St Paul’s Board Chair Darren Jennings, as well as staff and students.
