Masterplan and Capital Grants Update
This year, I have been working closely with architects Morton & Co to continue the development of a Masterplan for the future of our school. In March, we submitted an application to the Australian Government Capital Grants Program to support Stage 1A of this plan.
As previously shared, our school is currently experiencing a period of significant growth. Over the past three years, enrolments at St Brigid’s have increased from 94 students in 2023 to 136 students at the commencement of 2025 - a 44.7% increase. This growth has created a need for additional resources and infrastructure to ensure we can continue to provide high-quality Catholic education for our students.
At present, all seven of our classroom spaces are in full use, with further enrolment growth expected in the coming years. To respond to this, the Masterplan has been developed in three key stages:
- Stage 1A: Construction of two new classrooms and an amenities block
- Stage 1B: Extension of the staff room and addition of a meeting room
- Stage 2: Creation of a Specialist Learning Area within the main building and an amenities block
- Stage 3: Development of a Multipurpose Hall
Our Capital Grants application specifically seeks funding for Stage 1A. I look forward to sharing further updates with you.
