Echuca College is a state secondary school in Echuca, Victoria, Australia. It was established in 2006 by the merger of Echuca Secondary College and Echuca High School.[1] The school is currently situated on one campus at Butcher Street.
History
The history of the school dates back to the late 20th century when the school was known as Echuca Technical School. Echuca Technical School ceased to be a technical school in the early 1990s and moved to the Butcher Street site, where it remained as Echuca Secondary College until 2006 when it was merged with the other state secondary school in Echuca, Echuca High School. Echuca College received an A$15 million grant from the Victorian Government to transform the school to a 'state of the art' learning centre.[2] Recently,[when?] Echuca College received another grant to help with landscaping.
Since 23 November 2009, Years 10 to 12 moved to the College Drive Campus. Echuca College is now situated on one campus. The Crofton Street Campus is managed by the Victorian Department of Education and Early Childhood Development.
Echuca High School
Echuca High School was a mid-sized government secondary school functioning between 1903 and 2005. Located to the north of Echuca's business district, the Echuca High School campus was situated at the end of Crofton Street and next to the Campaspe River. Sections of its facilities, particularly the sports fields, were prone to occasional flooding.
The school had a typical student enrolment in the 600s, catering from students between the ages of 12–18. The school motto was 'Play the Game' and its emblem featured two crossed boomerangs.

Once they finished and they are all correct, the student is now licensed to use that tool in the workshop.
