Discovery Centre
With construction beginning in 2005, the "Discovery Centre" was commissioned into use the following year. Officially opened on the behalf of the Minister of Education the centre brings new incentives for students integrating a world class learning environment, within IT-rich surroundings.
Guests and politicians from the local community attended the opening ceremony: the 2006 Year 9 students and teachers, various school principals together with 2005 Year 9 students who assisted into contributing to the Discovery Centre. During the ceremony a member formally opened the centre on behalf of the Minister of Education.
It has been intended for the Discovery Centre to open in 2005 but the final go-ahead did not occur until mid-2005. During construction students endured replacement classes in the Hall which had been organised to accommodate 4 classes - divided merely with non-soundproof boarding. Teachers used their initiative by conducting classes outdoors or in the amphitheatre.

Famous quotes containing the words discovery and/or centre:
“We are all humiliated by the sudden discovery of a fact which has existed very comfortably and perhaps been staring at us in private while we have been making up our world entirely without it.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
“In the centre of his cage
The pacing animal
Surveys the jungle cove
And slicks his slithering wiles
To turn the venereal awl
In the livid wound of love.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
