A school swimming pool is also a good thing, it means that the students don't need to take much time off school for swimming lessons. It probably saves money in the long term when bus rental and public pool fees are considered but you need to have the land and the money in advance to build it.
Drouin Secondary has its own pool public school in a semi rural area (rapidly becoming an outer suburb of melbourne) my son goes there
Do any government schools have a school owned vehicle for driving instruction at school?
Yes Neerim South Regional has its own car for student drivers to learn in my other son went there but did not learn to drive as he is special needs which was the reason we travelled to a more distant school then Drouin secondary as class sizes are smaller as is the total school population allowing easier integration in to the school, he also had a full time personal aide funded by the education dept
There are real benefits to private schools. School sucks generally, but if you are going to send kids to a school and can afford it then a good private school should be better than most government schools.
