SCHOOL AMALGAMATIONS

Mr WHETSTONE (Chaffey) (15:07): My question is to the Minister for Education and Child Development. Can the minister advise when she visited the Renmark Primary and the Renmark Junior Primary schools in my electorate that will be forced to amalgamate? On 2 May, the minister told parliament and the media that she had visited every school earmarked for amalgamation except the Nicolson Avenue school in Whyalla.

The Hon. G. PORTOLESI (Hartley—Minister for Education and Child Development) (15:08): That was opposed to amalgamation.

The SPEAKER: The member for Port Adelaide.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!
