It was my pleasure to attend the official opening and blessing of the new Administration Building ‘Presentation Place’ and Arts Precinct ‘Cork’ at St Oliver Plunkett Primary School, Cannon Hill, on Friday.

The building names pay tribute to the Presentation Sisters who first staffed the school when it opened in 1947. Presentation Place was chosen to pay tribute to Nano Nagle who founded the Presentation Sisters and Cork acknowledges the location of her first school.

These new buildings, constructed with the assistance of Queensland Government funding, will benefit both staff and students with modern, fit-for-purpose facilities and learning spaces as the school community continues to grow.
