Independent Member for Pittwater Jacqui Scruby MP celebrates a win for local public school Narrabeen Sports High, after a project update promised a brand-new performance hall with a construction contract awarded.
The announcement comes with the NSW Government’s promise to deliver $9.2 billion for upgrades in schools. After completed upgrades and improvements across Narrabeen Sports High, this is a welcomed addition.
“Pittwater infrastructure has been lacking for 70 years, so it is great to see our local schools being supported to bring out the best in our students,” Ms Scruby said.
“Narrabeen is going from strength to strength - it’s not only an Olympic pathway school but now also one which will be known for performing arts. The better the school environment, the more opportunities students have to perform and reach their full potential.”
Ms Scruby acknowledged the incredible advocacy of the P&C, particularly Suzie Stanford, and Principal Heidi Currie, with whom she has worked to push for improvements like this to allow students with all interests and talents to thrive in a school environment.
“Meeting the high school students in our community has shown the amount of talent and range we have throughout Pittwater. Spaces like these are an incredible opportunity for our students to enhance their skills and find out what they are capable of. I am excited to see the students of Narrabeen Sports High lean into the arts and take advantage of this new creative space,” Ms Scruby said.
The hall will provide students with a performance space that seats up to 380 people, with creative spaces for students to workshop their talents, and overall a brand new facility to enhance their education in the arts.
Construction for the performance hall is set to commence in the coming weeks and is projected to be completed by mid-2027.
