Every child deserves access to a great local school with world-class facilities.
That's why the Allan Labor Government is investing 294.8 million investment in the Victorian Budget 2026/27 to upgrade 31 government schools across Victoria.
When they were last in government, the Liberals and Nationals slashed $1 billion education - devastating Victorian families and letting public schools crumble.
Do the Liberals and Nationals support upgrades for our public schools - or will they cut them?
Quotes attributable to Deputy Premier and Minister for Education Ben Carroll
Nothing is more important than our children's future.
"Victorian students deserve world-class facilities - and that's exactly what we're delivering at Surfside."
"Labor is investing in great local public schools - do the Liberals support it, or will they cut it?"
Quotes attributable to Member for Bellarine Alison Marchant
"Securing funding to upgrade Surfside Primary School and deliver a brand-new indoor gymnasium is fantastic news for this incredible school community. Thank you to principal Peter Walsh, the school council presidents and the Ocean Grove community for their passionate advocacy in support of this project."
