Stuart Ayres MP, Member for Penrith today announced that the upgrade at Lapstone Public School a step closer with a call made for the construction tenders.
“The construction will deliver an upgraded library/classroom and administration building to benefit the students, teachers and families of Lapstone Public School.”
“I’m pleased that the project has reached this important milestone,” Stuart Ayres said.
“We want our children to have the best possible facilities and this upgrade will deliver modern resources for the students, now and into the future.”
It is anticipated a construction contractor will be engaged in late October.
Minister for Education Sarah Mitchell said she was pleased the project is progressing.
“The Department of Education is working hard to deliver the school facilities that students and local communities deserve,” Ms Mitchell said.
“This includes building new schools, but also upgrading existing facilities to enhance the educational environment for students across the state.”
The NSW Government is investing $6.7 billion over four years to deliver more than 190 new and upgraded schools to support communities across NSW. This is the largest investment in public education infrastructure in the history of NSW.
