This is a typical computer lab, and shows Certificate III in Busines students doing research on critical-thought blockers. We also have a mobile computer lab, with 16 laptops, that can be used in a regular classroom. Cert III students are typically recent school leavers, aged 15 - 17, who are unsure of their career paths. We offer career advice and job-seeking planning to all students at WCIT.

I teach many subjects, from Occupational Health and Safety to Critical Thinking. This is a group of student studying Certificate IV in Business. Their ages vary from 17 to mature ae. In this group many had English as a second language. This photo shows the final assessment of the unit "Make a Presentation" where students are required to present on an environmental topic for 15 minutes. This presentation was on the illegal ivory trade.

This is "A" Block where the Commerce & Technology Division is located. I am in the Business Section, which is on the top floor at the right of the photo. Sometimes when arriving early in the morning there are wild kangaroos grazing in the area to the left of the photo. WCIT is surrounded by bushland, and had two bushfires very close to it in 2010. Every summer we are on alert for snakes, not only outside, but last year we had one in a ground floor staffroom.
