Doors open on upgraded facilities at Cairns Special School
An expansion to Cairns State Special School has been officially opened. Two new buildings and new outdoor learning spaces include therapy and sensory rooms, specialist equipment, a new playground and extra car parking. The school principal, Alicia Smith, said the facilities would let students keep learning tailored to their needs. Premier David Crisafulli said the government is delivering more special schools to give families more choice. Member for Mulgrave Terry James said the extra capacity would ease pressure from growing local enrolments.
