Birmingham Primary will soon create a nature play area thanks to a $200,000 grant.
The Mount Evelyn school is among 93 across Victoria sharing $15 million to build all-access play areas, sensory gardens and outdoor learning areas to support students with disabilities and additional needs.
The cash is from the State Government’s $30 million Inclusive Schools Fund.
“This nature play area will make a real difference by ensuring Birmingham Primary School provides an inclusive environment for all students,” Eastern Victoria Region MP Daniel Mulino said.
Education Minister and Monbulk MP James Merlino said: “These projects are all about giving our primary schools the equipment and infrastructure they need to inspire a lifelong passion for learning for all of their students and to show that disability isn’t a barrier to learning and achieving.”
