About us

Esperance Residential College provides a safe and comfortable home away from home for rural and remote secondary students in Western Australia, giving them a supportive environment to reach their potential.

Situated within the Esperance Community Education Campus, the college works with Esperance Senior High School, Esperance Education Support Centre and South Regional TAFE to provide for the education needs of students in Esperance.

Esperance is located about 700 km from Perth on Western Australia’s glistening south-east coast. Esperance’s natural beauty, climate and lifestyle attracts a vibrant local community. 

Esperance Residential College is in the heart of the Esperance town site. The college has a strong relationship with the Esperance community as a trusted local organisation.

The thriving coastal town offers a complete range of services for comfortable living, such as shopping, social and recreational facilities.

The college has strong ties to the community. To enhance this connection we have a local input networking and communications (LINC) committee at the college. The LINC committee is made up of representatives from the community and provides advice and support to the manager and staff regarding the operation and management of the college. The LINC committee promotes the college and ensures that activities are in the best interest of students. Esperance LINC committee meets once per term.
