State Member for Sunbury Josh Bull today announced new funding for Sunbury West Primary School that will allow the school to develop an outdoor exercise space on the school grounds.

The funding of $12,000 will assist the school in building facilities at the school, used by students of all years to encourage physical activity and enhanced wellbeing.

In announcing the funding Mr. Bull said that the Andrews Labor government is committed to making Victoria the Education state, part of that is ensuring that our students have top class outdoor recreation and exercise facilities to use in Physical Education classes and during breaks.
