11 local community groups in the Cronulla electorate have secured a total of $330,000 of funding from the NSW government’s 2018 Community Building Partnership (CBP) program.
The program funds infrastructure projects for local community groups and schools and helps to pay for much-needed improvements.
The NSW Government’s strong economic management ensures we are in a position to invest in these important local projects.
The successful projects in the Cronulla electorate for 2018 are:
- Laguna Street Public School P&C (installation of new all-weather pitch) $55,000
- Woolooware High School P&C (basketball court resurfacing and carpark reconfiguration) $46,000
- Burraneer Bay Public School P&C (covered walkways) $45,000
- Yowie Bay Public School P&C (refurbish school oval with synthetic playing field) $40,000
- St Francis de Sales Catholic Primary School (playground upgrade) $35,000
- Kirrawee High School P&C (new toilet blocks) $30,000
- Cronulla Public School P&C (shade sail) $25,000
- Civic Disability Services Ltd. (new recreational space) $20,000
- Shire Woodworking Club Inc. (purchase of laser cutter and engraver) $15,200
- De La Salle Caringbah Junior Rugby League Football Club Inc. (grandstand seating) $15,000
- Southside Malibu Club Cronulla Inc. (club equipment trailer with signage) $3,800
I congratulate all the organisations that were successful in their application and look forward to seeing how these projects make a difference for community groups in the area.

💚💛Australia is making an extraordinary showing at the 2024 Paralympics in Paris, currently holding 41 medals — 11 gold 🥇, 12 silver 🥈, and 18 bronze 🥉!
A special shout out to Alexa Leary (@alexa_leary), who not only claimed gold but also broke the women’s 100m freestyle S9 world record! 🌟 That’s after her incredible recovery and resilience from a near-fatal accident in 2021.
Another big shout out to Dan Michel (@Dan_Michel) from Cronulla who won silver for Boccia Men’s Individual BC3!
With our team competing across 17 sports, there’s still plenty of action left and more chances to add to our medal haul! Let’s keep cheering them on 💚💛 #Paralympics #TeamAustralia ... See MoreSee Less

I bet you are still supporting the Yes vote for a voice to parliament even though we voted against it. You are definitely one of Australian Labor Party best supporter, another Lib minister that wishes he was Labor minister
While you remain leader of the NSW Liberals they will never make it back into government. I have Voted Liberal for 45years and never have I seen a weaker leader , you are an embarrassment. You have not only damaged state Liberal Party but now you are a risk to the Federal Liberal party. Bo one knew who you were until this latest debacle and now we do we want you gone.
