New year 7 learning centre for St Mary of the Angels

HIGH school students at St Mary of the Angels Secondary College in Nathalia will benefit from a new San Rufino Year 7 Learning Centre thanks to $700,000 in funding from the Federal Government.

Member for Murray, Damian Drum officially opened the new facility last week on behalf of the Minister for Education, Dan Tehan.

“It was great to visit St Mary of the Angels Secondary College and see the new facilities firsthand and the impact they will have on students’ learning potential,” Mr Drum said.

“These new learning spaces take into account the latest in educational research and will see students learn more effectively.

“Students and teachers thrive when their schools have modern and up-to-date facilities – that’s why the Federal Government is proud of the Capital Grants Program, which has benefited thousands of schools across the nation.”
