Education is the foundation of opportunity, and Thomas Hassall Anglican College has spent 25 years shaping young minds and enriching my local community. On 6 March I was honoured to celebrate this milestone and commemorate the opening of the John Flynn Centre for STEM, a state-of-the-art facility that will equip students with the skills to thrive in an ever-evolving world. The centre features eight maths classrooms, six science labs, a design and technology room, and dedicated learning spaces, all designed to ignite curiosity and foster innovation. Named after John Flynn, a pioneer of the Royal Flying Doctor Service, the centre embodies the same spirit of discovery and problem-solving that defines modern STEM education. With STEM careers among the fastest growing in Australia, facilities like this equip students with future-ready skills. The real impact comes from dedicated teachers who inspire, challenge and shape the next generation of innovators. Congratulations to Thomas Hassall Anglican College on this incredible achievement—another step towards endless possibilities.
