Lakeview Senior College’s senior students no longer have to seek refuge in Melton council’s library for some peace and quiet.
The Caroline Springs school has opened a new study centre solely for its year 11 and 12 students.
College principal Shayne Rule said the centre would make an “enormous difference” in the lives of the school’s 700-odd VCE and VCAL students.
“We don’t have a school library, we use Melton council’s,” he said. “We wanted something that was solely for our senior students so they could study in peace.”
The double-storey relocatable building has been kitted out with computers, two large screens connected to Apple TV and whiteboards.
The $750,000 centre was officially opened last month, about 18 months after the idea for a dedicated senior study centre was first hatched.
