Relieving Principal Mrs Deb Gilbert said the work is being carried out across the school, targeting primarily the woodwork room and primary classrooms.

It is expected that the fresh lick of paint and roofing will be completed in time for the start of the new school year.

Myall Lakes MP Stephen Bromhead announced that the works at Bulahdelah Central School are part of the $2.9 million currently being spent on school maintenance projects in the electorate.

“Every child deserves to have access to great facilities, wonderful teachers and get an excellent education and that is what we are delivering for students here in the Myall Lakes,” he said.

“Just like your family home, there are always jobs to be done to keep our schools in top condition.”

Mr Bromhead said, “We are making good use of the summer break to carry out important projects while students are off enjoying their holidays.”

The summer holiday blitz is part of the NSW Government’s record $747 million school maintenance investment over the next four years announced in the 2017 Budget.

Mr Bromhead said this will allow every NSW school to have their maintenance project list slashed by December 2018.
