This morning I was thrilled to turn the first sod at St Charles Catholic Primary School in Ryde with a little help from School Captains Lachie and Sally and Kindy representatives, Arianna and Cooper.
This BER project will result in a new multi-purpose hall with 2 classrooms, a new administration building and the refurbishment of existing classrooms and library.
The Federal Government contribution of $5.4 million dollars along with more than $2 million dollars from the Parish will see a total transformation of the school.
It was a very exciting day for the St Charles school community and I am as keen as all of them to see the finished project.
