Health and Communities Building Renovation Plan

From late February/early March 2026, Central Regional TAFE will begin upgrade works on the Health and Communities building on the Geraldton Campus.
The project is part of Western Australia’s State-wide Cladding Audit and will ensure the building meets the new National Construction Code 2022 standards.

Project timeline:

  • Start: Late February/early March 2026
  • Completion: Early 2027

What to expect:

  • Safety first: The Health and Communities building is safe to occupy while works are underway.
  • Minimising disruption: Works will be staged, and noisy activities are planned during study breaks where possible.
  • Regular updates: Progress reports and any changes that affect you will be shared by email, on the intranet, and around Geraldton Campus.
