Proposed demolition of East Brisbane State School for Olympic Games development


Proposed demolition of East Brisbane State School for Olympic Games development
The issue
Parents say they've been left in the dark about the future of the heritage-listed East Brisbane Primary School, which could be lost to Olympic Games developments.
This is a 123-year-old school, part of Brisbane's history and heritage. We can't lose it for an Olympic Games that lasts two weeks. The school is forever.
I am petitioning to ask the Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk and her government to consider finding another venue for developments; a venue where new development does not impact on heritage buildings. This is my old state school. It is an amazing example of architecture long since built and indicative of a time past we can't throw away for a sports development.
