Cool schools by design TWO Seaford primary schools and a Frankston South secondary school have been recognised in the 2016 Victorian School Design Awards. Kakanook Primary School won and Seaford North Primary Schools was a finalist in the ‘Best School Project’ in the below $1 million category, while Mount Erin Secondary College in Frankston South was a finalist in the ‘Best Secondary School’ category. Kananook Primary School assistant principal Stuart Gilchrist said the school won the award for its “fantastic” new open learning centre and IT space, which provided students with a bright, comfortable and functional facility. The project was completed in July for $300,000.
“It’s a great space that the students love and allows collective open plan learning with custom-designed ‘stand up’ workbenches, which are very flexible in their usage,” he said. Students can use the benches for IT, partner work, individual work and large group activities. Fourteen schools from across the state were shortlisted for the awards, which showcased how modern school design can benefit students. State Education Minister James Merlino presented the awards last week. “These awards are a great opportunity for local schools and architects to showcase how innovative school design contributes to a better education for our kids,” Mr Merlino said.

Trio arrested after police chase THREE people were in a car which allegedly fled police following an incident at a Mornington service station and continued north along Peninsula Link, 2.20am, Monday 7 November. The hour-long car-and-foot chase, which involved police dogs, began when police tried to pull over a Holden station wagon with stolen number plates at a service station on Racecourse Rd. Senior Sergeant Phillip Hulley, of Frankston police, said the driver reversed quickly, forcing the police to take “quick evasive action” to avoid being rammed. The car was driven off at speed on Mornington-Tyabb Rd with police in pursuit, but stopped
on the Frankston-Dandenong Rd near the Peninsula Link overpass. A man and a woman ran from the car with several police units and the Dog Squad chasing them on foot. The pair, aged in their 20s, was arrested about 3.20am near Belvedere Reserve in Seaford and was to be interviewed over theft and traffic offences. The male driver, also in his 20s, of Beaumaris, continued on to Parkdale, dumping the car near Mac Crescent. He was arrested just before 3am and will be charged on summons with driving an unregistered car, theft of number plates, and other traffic offences. Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
