The rebuild of Moorabbin Primary School is underway!

Member for Bentleigh Nick Staikos joined staff and students to turn the first sod as construction starts.

The project includes new classrooms and a gymnasium.

The Andrews Labor Government is building the Education State so every student can receive a great education in their local area.

In the past 9 years, the Government has invested $14.9 billion in building new schools and more than 1,940 school upgrades.

The Government is ahead of schedule in opening 100 new schools by 2026, with 75 new schools opening between 2019 and 2024 – ensuring every student can access a great local school and a quality education no matter where they live.
