The petition for a new high school at Highfields was first presented to local Labor MP Kerry Shine in 2007.

The Bligh Government has let down Toowoomba yet again with its failure to follow through on important road works on James Street, proving that Kerry Shine and Anna Bligh have no vision and no plans for the Garden City, LNP candidate for Toowoomba North Trevor Watts said.

"Forget what Labor says, look at what they do and when it comes to delivering for Toowoomba North, it's absolutely nothing," Mr Watts said.
