A decade of transformation at Cranbourne West Primary School
Way back in 2013, Cranbourne West Primary School decided to get involved in the Energy Breakthrough for the very first time. With just an old vehicle, and very little community awareness and support, one team travelled to Maryborough, where they got their first taste of a program that now sees students come back, well after their primary school days are over. Fast forward ten years, and Cranbourne West Primary School is now a mainstay of the Energy Breakthrough, with three teams set to hit the track this month!
