Workspace Commercial Furniture is proud to bring you the inspiring story of the Whyalla Secondary College. This state-of-the-art, $100+ million higher education facility is a trailblazer for educational construction and fit-outs, and is sure to leave a lasting impression on the Whyalla region.
Designed to accommodate over 1500 students, years 7 to 12, this college is more than just a building; it is a symbol of pride for all the local students, educators and community members who collaborated on the design. Not only does it incorporate the history of the existing schools, but it also provides over 50 inclusive spaces for students with disabilities, as well as exciting modern features with a strong sense of identity.
The completion of this project in April 2022 is something the entire Whyalla community will no doubt look forward to; a new symbol of hope and opportunity, and a testament to the power of collaboration and innovation.
