“Families can also become more active with the final investment in the Yarrabilba Hive community hub and new second Primary School that was recently announced.”
Mr Power adds,” Funding continues for the new Park Ridge State School Administration and new classrooms and additional Learning spaces for Park Ridge High School.”
“Twelve million dollars has been invested this financial year to finalise the Everleigh State School and $200 000 has been invested in the Park Ridge Pirates AFL club to help them move to their new home.”
He says, “Logan Families continue to be better connected with the investment in the Mt Lindesay Highway including the investment in four-laning the highway between Stoney Camp Rd and Chambers Flat Rd and four-laning the Mt Lindesay in Jimboomba between Johanna Street and South Street.”
