K.J. MAHER (Minister for Employment, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation, Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for Science and Information Economy): I am advised: As a result of families moving out of the community, the Watarru Community School service was suspended at the end of term 3, 2012. I visited Watarru on 8 November 2016 and noted that the outside of the school was in reasonable condition. The inside of many school buildings were no messier than the bedrooms of my children. There was no damage bill from this incident however the Department for Education and Child Development has secured the site and transferred items such as laptops and televisions to Murputja School.
