After more than three years in the making, Cobram Anglican Grammar School is set to proudly open its $3.4 million Trades Centre in Term 4.
This major project is the result of careful planning, extensive industry research, collaboration, and perseverance. From the initial design concepts provided by AngliSchools in 2022, through to securing crucial grant funding, the journey has united the expertise of AngliSchools, the Victorian Independent Schools Block Grant Authority, Tomahawk Property, Crow Constructions, and a host of skilled contractors. Every step has been guided by a shared commitment to creating a facility of lasting value for Cobram Anglican Grammar School students and the wider community.
The Trades Centre is designed to leave a legacy in the region, equipping generations of young people with the practical skills needed for trades and future-focused industries.
Cobram Anglican Grammar School already leads the way as the only secondary school in Victoria with industry-standard robotics, technology typically reserved for university students. The new Centre will further expand opportunities with state-of-the-art facilities including laser cutters, water jet cutters, CNC machines, and 3D printers. These resources will open career pathways vital to Australia’s future, while encouraging innovation, creativity, and hands-on learning for students today.
Cobram Anglican Grammar School acknowledges the Commonwealth Government for its role in providing a grant for this project through its capital grants program.
