Glen Park received a mod 5 double teaching space as part of the BER ( Building the Education Revolution or BER was a billion dollar government program to revitalise primary school infrastructure during the GFC) It was a successful program which contributed to Australia dodging the economic downturn endured in Europe and the US.
As well as stimulating the economy it provided schools ( especially small rural schools such as mine) with new buildings we would otherwise never have received. the school buildings at Glen Park were literally falling apart after decades of state government neglect. Now we have this fantastic double learning space which is full of new furniture, learning resources, thousands of books (yes thousands!) and nine motivated and enthusiastic students.
