Parents were not happy they were being forced to use their free time to apply for grants to fix toilets at their children’s schools. The school has one wheelchair accessible toilet, on the second floor of a building where the lift does not work. Volunteers had managed to secure a $150,000 grant from the government to upgrade bathrooms, and were informed that was enough to upgrade just four toilets, which could take up to a year. In its submission to the committee, Concord High School Parents and Citizens Association noted their school was short of toilets and demountable bathrooms had been installed, with no plan to replace them. Some school toilets don’t have working soap dispensers, the doors don’t lock, they’re dark and they stink from decades worth of urine soaking into tiling grout, Hilsz said. “We have parents complaining their children have, bladder issues, because children refuse to go to the toilet during the day,” Hilsz said. ![]()
