In a submission underleaf, the Director of Education at
Wollongong has stressed the need to allocate funds for the erection
of the two new primary classrooms, together with a combined toilet/
ablution block and associated facilities, previously approved for
this centre.
It has peen reported that with a current enrolment of 242
pupils, this school is now organised in 7 class groups. With only
five classrooms availa.A.e, one class has had to be accommodated in
an unsatisfactory rented hall while the other is housed in the school
library. It is mentioned that the library has dimensions of only
26 ft. by 17 ft. and is located in a stone building approximately
100 years old and which is devoid of natural lighting.
In the circumstances and as enrolments are unlikely to
fall within the next few years, there is little doubt that the
approved new accommodation should be provided as expeditiously
as possible. This view is supported by Mr. Staff Inspector McKibbin.
It is RECOMMENDED therefore that:approval be given for the release of loan funds, as
a special case, to permit the erection of the two
primary classrooms and combined toilet/ablution block
etc., previously approved for this centre.
the Department of Public Works be authorised to proceed
with the preparation of plans and specifications and
invite tenders as soon as possible.
Draft letter herewith for the Minister's signature, if
approved.
