  1. Some of the buildings are very old – well yes, some of the buildings (ie the quadrangle) are VERY old which is EXACTLY why it must be handed over to the community in recognjtion of them donating it to the government in the first place.
    Also, these buildings were good enough for our students only a few years ago, and some would be newer then some of the buildings students are in at other schools.

    The library is not old. Why can that not be put into almost immediate use? As for the quadrangle, there will be an uproar if any part of that is pulled down. It is an important part of the history of this town.

    The classrooms at the back of the school obviously need to go as they have suffered damage since the school has been closed, but the library, quadrangle and hall need to stay.

    Personally i don’t understand why TAFE didn’t take over most of it when it closed.

    What a “wishy-washy” response from our esteemed local member.
