Our public schools are located across 8 education regions and offer endless opportunities to live and work in Western Australia.
Western Australia (WA) is a large and diverse state from white sandy beaches, vineyards and forests in the south, tropical climate in the north to the arid red dirt of the outback. The variety of landscapes makes it the ideal location to explore and experience the relaxed outdoors Australian lifestyle. The state offers a comfortable lifestyle, great weather, world-renowned natural attractions, a progressive culinary scene and a vibrant cultural heritage.
