The Queensland government has committed $11.1 million on a new “multi storey learning centre” for Manly State School. While another $550,000 will be spent on an outdoor learning area in order to accommodate the increasing number of students.
Since the start of the pandemic, over 16,000 people have made the move to Brisbane and enrollments at the school have significantly increased as young families move to the area.
State Member for Lytton, Joan Pease, says the Government's contribution here is a huge boost for education on the Bayside.
