Two Papamoa schools are in line to expand their facilities and classrooms after gaining a slice of a $244 million pre-budget promise.
In a pre-budget speech today, Prime Minister John Key announced that Golden Sands School and Papamoa College are part of the nationwide multi-million dollar investment on new schools and classrooms.

The money is to come from the proceeds of the Asset Sales programme, known as the Future Investment Fund.
It will provide for seven new schools and additions to four other schools, while adding a further 241 classrooms.
Expansion to facilities and classrooms at four existing schools are for the two Papamoa Schools plus Hingaia Peninsula School in Auckland and Shotover Primary in Queenstown.
Four new state schools will be built, naming them as Rototuna Senior High School in Hamilton, a primary school in Rolleston, near Christchurch and two new primary schools in Auckland - one at Kumeu and the other at Scott Point.
