A $53,548 grant from the Community Building Partnerships program was announced by Mr Saunders, which will see a multi-purpose shed constructed to house materials and resources for an outdoor learning space.

Maryann Ebsworth from Wambangalang says the facility is exciting for the complex.

"We're able to offer a lot of opportunities for students when they come out here to do their environmental education," Ms Ebsworth said.

"We like to get the students outside and we like them learning, but we like them to be comfortable as well.

"We're hoping this shelter will provide the facilities to do other learning activities so it's really exciting for us."

Mr Saunders feels that the educational centre will benefit from the grant.

"Wambangalang provides an amazing outdoor learning environment however that obviously means that its programs are at the mercy of the elements, whether that can be extreme heat, winter temperatures or rain," Mr Saunders said.

"Having a multi-purpose facility that will not only store equipment but allow for learning to be taken indoors is a real boost for Wambangalang and provides like Skillset who use the facilities.

"Water stations and hand wash stations will also be included in the facility, so it will be fit-for-purpose from the start."

Wambanglang provides excursion and educational opportunities for K-12 students.
