“The school currently has almost 350 students so I’m sure these upgrades and additions to the facilities will be most welcome by staff and students.”

Construction works are slated to begin this month, with an estimated project completion at the beginning of the 2025 academic year.

Australia-based MPS Architects is overseeing the design of the new facilities in collaboration with the school community.

The WA Government has allocated A$626.7m ($405m) in 2023-2024, supporting around 200 projects in the state.

Kimberley MLA Divina D’Anna said: “The Halls Creek school redevelopment was a key election commitment I made in 2021, and I am very excited to see this important project reaching another milestone towards completion.

“I am a strong believer that regional and remote students should have equal access to quality education, and this A$13m project will give Halls Creek students and the community great new facilities to learn and grow.”
