The school forms part of the Queensland Government’s $21.9 billion education infrastructure program, which includes 15 new schools, including six special schools.
Queensland Minister for Education John-Paul Langbroek said every child deserved access to quality education no matter where they live.
“We’ve taken a major step forward in delivering a brand new, fit-for-purpose high school that will provide a world-class education to our young Queenslanders,” he said. “There are currently eight new schools or campuses under construction, with site works either underway or set to commence in the coming months.”
State Member for Rockhampton Donna Kirkland encouraged local businesses to attend the industry sessions.
“This project will support the growing needs of the Rockhampton region, particularly in Gracemere,” she said. “It will create opportunities for local businesses, and I encourage business owners to attend an information session to learn about the opportunities that are available.”
