Seeking to mark the beginning of construction works for the new Shepparton ACE Secondary College, a sod turning ceremony was held in the mud at the new site on the corner of Maude Street and Nixon Street in Shepparton.
Mayor, Cr Seema Abdullah along with Bronwyn Rose from ACE College officiated the small ceremony.
Shepparton ACE Secondary College has secured funding from the State Government and additional support from the City of Greater Shepparton Council to construct a state-of-the-art purpose-built school.
The school will relocate from the present school building in April 2021 and bring 120 students and teachers into the vicinity daily. The staff and students were strongly involved in the choice of location in order to maintain the college as a small school.
A feature of the new school will be a community circus space to be developed by Westside Circus as part of the school gym.
Shepparton ACE Secondary College is a small, Year 7 – 12 secondary school offering a mainstream education, pathways to further study, strong anti-bullying policies and a safe, caring and inspiring learning environment.
