Appin Park Primary School is to receive $188,252 from the Victorian government as part of a statewide initiative.

Member for Northern Victoria, Jaclyn Symes, announced the school is among 24 schools sharing in more than $13 million from the Planned Maintenance Program (PMP) to prioritise and complete maintenance works on classrooms and facilities.

“We are making sure every school in Northern Victoria offers students a modern, safe and inspiring place to learn,” Ms Symes said.

“Our Planned Maintenance Program invests in our schools and the future of our kids – by helping them thrive in state-of-the-art facilities.”

Schools will use the funding to carry out essential works such as fixing roofs, replacing windows, maintaining ramps, painting, resurfacing floors, or improving pathways.
