Lyneham High School will still be getting a "refurbished" gym despite an assembly inquiry labelling the project as an "inefficient and an inappropriate use of funds".
ACT budget documents for the 2026-27 financial year, released on June 10, still include $5.7 million for "refurbishing" the school gym, despite continued parent advocacy for a brand new building.
2025 documents revealed the government had already commissioned designs for a new double gymnasium but ended up changing the project, which the school community said was a broken promise.
