PPE Personal Protective Equipment
What is PPE and why do we need it at Western Technical College?
PPE is Personal Protective Equipment and we need this to help protect our bodies from injury.
On your first day, WTC will provide long sleeved shirts and jumpers, and glasses (where needed).
You will need to come wearing long work pants and steel capped boots for trades, and black pants and shoes for Hair and Makeup.
PPE can be purchased at many different outlets.

Mount Carmel College students have been lucky enough to complete an introductory session to 3D Art and animation with Aie. Students spent their time using the blender program to begin to make Snowmen and Lego characters. Thanks to Alyssa and Adam from aie for giving Mount Carmel College students an insight into the growing industry of 3D art, animation, game development, VFX and film production.
Keep an eye on our website for exciting future courses.

Should your child consider Vocational Education?
Increasing numbers of students in Catholic and Department schools are choosing a vocational education and training (VET) pathway.
It is no longer a matter of choosing SACE or VET – students can now get the best of both worlds.
An increasing number of students are completing full certificate III level courses that are recognised for an ATAR as part of a student’s SACE completion.
