About the project
We replaced an older building containing asbestos with a new permanent modular building.
Our modular facilities require less time for planning and construction, resulting in reduced disruption to students, staff and teaching programs. They are sustainable and innovatively designed, with a comparable lifespan to bricks and mortar structures. Orbost Secondary College is benefitting from the Permanent Modular School Buil dings Program.
In the 2019–20 State Budget, the school received $3.48 million through the Permanent Modular School Buildings Program.

About the project
We upgraded facilities, including:
- refurbishing the music room to include a new entry foyer and new administration offices,
- painting the art room, and fitting it with new flooring, lighting and sinks,
- completing external landscaping to give the school clear entry and exit points.
In the 2018–19 State Budget $900,000 was allocated to the school.
