On 2 February 2019, MP Barry O’Rourke, Senator Murray Watt, ALP
candidate Russell Robertson, and MP and Shadow Education Minister Brittany
Lauga visited Rockhampton SHS. The
purpose was to investigate funding possibilities for our proposed aquaculture
centre. Led by teacher Collis Holloway, this is a partnership project with
Rockhampton Regional Council, CQ University, local industries and sporting
groups.
We are very keen to investigate possibilities to support our students’
educational pathways and to support the region; aquaculture development is
likely to prove to be economically and environmentally
important to Rockhampton.
