Recently Mr Jonathan O Dea, Member for Davidson, announced that parts of the former Belrose TAFE site adjacent to John Colet School are to be sold to Northern Beaches Council. Current indications are that this specific area will become sports courts with associated recreational facilities. The remaining bushland area is to remain untouched as it has been set aside for bio banking as a special environmental area. The school has been meeting regularly over the past few years with Mr O Dea, local representative groups, state and local government officials to ensure a positive outcome for this land. We are very happy with this community focused result and we would like to thank all parties involved for their efforts to provide greater recreational facilities while preserving the very special ecology of our area.
