An exciting new feature of the Marriott Waters community, Lyndhurst Primary School officially opened for term one 2011.
Celebrating its official opening with a visit from the Hon. Martin Dixon MP, Minister for Education during February, the primary school now has over 190 students enrolled, including 50 new preps.
Positioned within the heart of Marriott Waters, the school features innovative agora-style learning spaces, as well as first-class sporting facilities including an indoor stadium, outdoor sporting courts and oval.
In conjunction with Villawood Properties, 39 Lyndhurst Primary students recently stepped outside the classroom to study the benefits of the estate’s establishing wetland system together with the Royal Botanic Gardens Cranbourne.
Conducting experiments on the waterways at Marriott Waters, students learnt about the types of plant and animal life inhabiting the wetlands and how the water bodies interact with the local ecosystem to cleanse storm-water run-off before being deposited back into Melbourne’s water catchments.
As part of Lyndhurst Primary’s first term, the school hosted a community celebration movie night. Held on the school oval on 7 April 2011, approximately 300 people attended the event which included a screening of Open Season Three. As a major sponsor, Villawood Properties proudly supported the community celebration which included a visit from ‘Waddles the Platypus’.
