wcc Residential Campus

The Western Cape College Residential Campus is located on Tamarind Avenue, Weipa and is a home away from home for students aged between 12 and 18 years who come from Cape York communities, and the Torres Strait.  These students are enrolled at the Weipa Campus to complete their schooling.

The state of the art facility can accommodate 120 students, and has clear separation for boys and girls.  The facilities include a multi-purpose court, a dining room, a purpose built medical centre, and administration building for the Head of Campus and staff, and onsite staff accommodation. 

The grounds of the facility are fenced to give students a safe, contained environment to live in, and activities are structured and supervised to ensure students are engaged and stimulated outside of school hours.
