OPPOSITION LEADER JOINS THE FIGHT AGAINST MURWILLUMBAH SCHOOL MERGER
The federal Opposition Leader has joined the fight to save four Murwillumbah schools from merging into a mega-campus.
It comes just days after the State Government committed funding to the project – by announcing more than $100-million for the Education Precinct.
“We’ve heard today from the students, the parents and the community that they don’t want it – there’s been no proper consultation about these changes,” Opposition Leader Anthony Albanese said.
