The $7 million works are now in the schematic design stage and construction is expected to start in July 2022.

"These facilities will be fantastic modern additions to the school and I know students, staff and the school community will be as pleased as I am to see them progress.

"The performing arts centre will be a major asset for the school while the STEM classroom will help prepare students for jobs of the future."
