MAINTENANCE WORKS FOR MALMSBURY PRIMARY SCHOOL
More students across the state are learning in upgraded classrooms and facilities thanks to the continued investment by the Allan Labor Government.
Member for Macedon, Mary-Anne Thomas today announced Malmsbury Primary School is one of 49 schools which will share in over $17.3 million of funding from the Planned Maintenance Program (PMP).
The program funds high-priority maintenance works across Victoria’s government schools. The funding allows schools to undertake essential work in classrooms and other school buildings such as fixing roofs and replacing windows, maintaining ramps, painting, and resurfacing floors, as well as some external works like improving pathways.
Malmsbury Primary School was allocated $570,799 for works on the school's Shelter-in- Place building. This includes ceiling repair, repainting works, revarnishing works, roof works and stormwater works.
Works are determined by a rolling facilities evaluation process, which provides up-to-date information on the condition of schools. Including this latest round of funding, this program has funded $65.2 million for 211 projects at 207 schools in 2025.
The Labor Government has invested $16.9 billion over the past 10 years to build new schools and deliver more than 2,200 school upgrades − supporting more than 26,000 jobs in construction and associated industries.
The Government is building the Education State so every student can access a great local school and a quality education no matter where they live.
