Information regarding accommodation, tourist attractions, sporting facilities, travel options, community services, health and safety services, childcare, licences, embassies, insurance, bank accounts, employment, transportation, goods for sale / hire and other items of interest is provided on an ongoing basis by the administrative staff of West Coast College. Our notice boards are constantly updated.

Many students find it affordable and enjoyable to train for a practical qualification such as a driving licence or SCUBA diving certificate while in Bunbury, and West Coast College can help students find a suitable training program.

As the College works very closely with the Bunbury community, both private business and local government, we encourage students to undertake extracurricular volunteer work experience. Volunteering allows students to improve their English, meaningfully interact with locals and contribute positively to the host community.

We also offer students the opportunity to spend up to 10 hours a month gaining logged work experience with our administrative staff.
