The school will receive $105,125 to go towards upgrading the outdoor multipurpose court and improve the physical education space.
Member for Macedon Mary-Anne Thomas said she was pleased to see students getting the play areas they deserve.
"We're making sure that our schools have the best facilities both indoors and outdoors," she said.
"Our fantastic local teachers and the Victorian State Government want to ensure that every child is given every chance to succeed.
"Macedon families are a step closer to getting the great local school facilities their kids need to thrive."
While much of this funding went on new schools and significant upgrades to help meet increasing demand, the Minor Capital Works Fund is about delivering the small projects that make a big difference while also supporting local jobs.
Projects through the fund will be progressively delivered with all projects to be completed by the end of 2022.
More than 300 Victorian government schools have been allocated funding to fast-track priority projects under the Minor Capital Works Fund to improve learning environments as well as the condition and character of schools.
