Land acquired for new school in Port Melbourne

The Victorian Government has today announced it has acquired land in the City of Port Phillip local government area for a new school at Fishermans Bend.

Minister for Education, Ben Carroll said the land acquisition of land on Williamstown Road in Port Melbourne was exciting news for local families, and would help meet the needs of the growing population across the area with a brand-new, modern school.

The new school, which will open from the beginning of 2026, will provide places for up to 650 students from Prep to Grade 6 at the centre of Fishermans Bend in the Wirraway Precinct.

“Fishermans Bend is the largest urban renewal project in the country, and we’re proud to contributing to the community’s growth with a new primary school,” said Minister Carroll.
