THE new high school at Mackay's Northern Beaches is an example of how the State Government plans to redirect funds from smaller schools to growing areas. <\/p>\n
Minister for Education, Training and Employment John-Paul Langbroek was in Mackay yesterday to officially open the $45million Mackay Northern Beaches State High School. <\/p>\n
This opening comes as nine schools across the state face the chopping block. <\/p>\n
\"The $45million that has come from the government to build this school is an example of where we sometimes have to take revenue from other sources to put into building new schools or improving old ones,\" Mr Langbroek said. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The Minister said that, like any business, the government needed to look at its assets. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\"We need to obviously plan where we've got great growth,\" he said. <\/p>\n
\"We need to look at other schools where enrolments might be declining.\" <\/p>\n
