Program Update Alert – Banksia Hill

We are pleased to announce that since the launch of our pilot program, Banksia Hill Detention Centre Civil Construction Set Project in June 2024,13 participants have successfully completed their Certificate II in Civil Construction!

Congratulations to those participants, who undertook the program completing the 16-unit qualification, including an excavator ticket and white card, preparing participants to be worksite ready for a job in construction.  

Youth Justice Coordinator, Shayne Williams said “It’s just been fantastic, in the sense that we’ve helped change some lives. It’s amazing to see such great success in such a short amount of time.”

Achieving these outcomes, two participants are currently working in community and another participant is currently completing his Certificate III in Civil Construction, since being released.

“Our Bunuru Mentor, Chris, has done a fantastic job supporting the boys in the program and we can’t wait to see what comes next!” said Shayne.

Well done to all participants!

The Banksia Hill Detention Centre Civil Construction Set Project is part of our Justice program, with the Department of Justice.
