Work is nearing completion on the WCC’s innovative new Study Centre, located at the All Sports Ground. CEO of WCC Percy Knight, is excited about what the new centre will mean for both the indigenous community and the community as a whole. Once completed, the facility will comprise a number of buildings including: a skills centre; a cultural environmental centre; a wellness centre to deal with drug and alcohol issues; a child and care facility; and an administration building. The skills centre will focus on mining industry training, skills which Percy says will be easily transferrable to other occupations. There will also be the development of a multi-purpose sports ground and the existing basketball courts will be revived.
