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.
