On Friday 04 March 2022, the Glen Education Sacred Heart Kindergarten community celebrated the completion of major renovation works to improve the connection between learning indoors and outdoors. This project required significant investment by the school, as well as a major contribution from Glen Education.
The upgrade of the kindergarten involved the installation of:
- purpose-built children’s toilets adjacent to the outdoor garden
- replacement of the solid brick wall with custom windows and doors to enable visibility
- a large foyer
- additional storage for resources
- renovated staff facilities
- an accessibility ramp into the playground
Particular thanks to Sacred Heart Primary School Principal, Brian Martin and Assistant Principal, Jan Morice. Our thanks also to the team from Melbourne Archdiocese of Catholic Schools (MACS) for their ongoing support and leadership of the project. We were also pleased to have representatives from Monash City Council, including Mayor Stuart James; Manager of Children, Youth and Family Services, Chris Thompson; Department of Education and Training, Nicola McCaul;Â the Hon. Steve Dimopoulos MP; the Glen Education Board; and staff.
