About the project
Mernda Park Primary is a new school serving families in the suburb of Mernda. We built the school to accommodate up to 400 students, and was delivered by the Learning Communities Victoria (LCV) consortium. The school opened for Prep to Year 6 students in Term 1, 2017.
The school was designed with the local community in mind and is a gathering place for local families and residents to enjoy community, arts, sports and recreation programs.
Facilities include:
- an additional multi-purpose space that can be used by the school during school hours and by the YMCA out of school hours to provide a range of community services and programs
- an expanded gymnasium built to Netball Victoria standards
- conference and meeting rooms for local community use
- embedded environmental sustainability education via the CERES ResourceSmart Schools program initiative
- conference and meeting rooms for local community use.
The site also includes an integrated early learning centre which comprises of the City of Whittlesea's Child and Family Centre and the YMCA-operated early learning centre .
Delivered as part of the $291 million allocated in 2014-15 for the Public Private Partnership (PPP) Project across regional and metropolitan Victoria.
