Students at Aranda Primary School are making the most of their newly
installed sporting facilities provided under the Australian
Government’s Nation Building-Economic Stimulus Plan.
The Primary School, which opened in 1969, is located in Aranda, at
the western foot of Black Mountain, Canberra.
The primary school received $150,000 under the National School Pride
program for the installation of an outdoor multi-purpose rubberised
sports court. The project is now complete and provides a safe and
modern space for students.
The school also received $2.5 million in funding under the Primary
Schools for the 21st Century program for the construction of a new
resources centre, including library and IT facilities. Work is well
underway on the P21 project with civil works and in-ground services
now in progress.
