The Department of Education project recently commenced and completion is scheduled for late 2020. During the works, almost 360 Western Australian workers will be involved, with more than 200 from within the Kimberley region, including apprentices and trainees.
Crothers Construction was awarded the tender for the $20 million project, which includes a new two-storey teaching block; refurbishments to existing buildings and external landscaping and car parking works.
In a major boost for Kimberley-based businesses, around $10.5 million worth of subcontractor opportunities will be available as part of the project.
