Stage two of Craigieburn’s Elevation Secondary College opens

Elevation Secondary College in Craigieburn has welcomed a number of new upgrades, after the official opening of stage two developments from Kalkallo MP Ros Spence and Education Minister Natalie Hutchins.

With a $25 million investment from the state government, the school has welcomed additional facilities, including a gymnasium, performing arts and music classrooms, food technology classrooms, and a canteen.

Stage two also includes two new learning communities, additional hardcourts, landscaping, and a sports oval.

In 2020, Elevation Secondary College entered the first phase of the project with the inclusion of a science, technology and arts building, a general-purpose learning community, an administration centre and library.

Ms Spence said that the investment in schools throughout the community will help to ensure local students are able to get the best start in life.

“It was terrific to meet so many students who are now benefitting from these brand-new state-of-the-art-facilities,” she said.
