ACT Labor is investing in Gungahlin's future building a second college in Nicholls to meet the educational needs of our growing district.
The new college, scheduled to open by 2030, will help ease pressure of Gungahlin College which has been near maximum capacity for sometime.
The all-electric state-of-the-art campus will feature modern and inclusive learning facilities to meet the needs of all students. This includes:
learning spaces and welcoming shared common spaces
sports and arts facilities for school and community use
modern administration spaces, including a leadership and staff centre
a performing arts theatre
a gymnasium
tennis hardcourts
sports field
electric food-technology classrooms
water-wise landscaping
active transport facilities.
Sod has turned on the Nicholls worksite!
Site fencing has been established, and early earthworks will commence shortly.
This new campus will bring more college education closer to home while also providing new facilities available for community use outside of school hours!
Traffic Management controls will be in place around the worksite including speed limits and traffic controls where required. Please see the Notice of Construction Works document for more information.
Design released for Gungahlin's Second College!
Located in Nicholls, the second Gungahlin College will feature state-of-the-art facilities to support learning and teaching for staff and students.
The new college will have capacity for 800 students to help meet the educational needs of the growing Gungahlin population.
