First year Master of Teaching students from Edith Cowan University (ECU) recently joined us at the WAEC Education Centre to gain hands on experience and learn more about WA’s democratic system 🗳️

Armed with this new knowledge, they will provide important understanding about our Election delivery processes to future voters!

We’re looking forward to seeing some of these friendly faces again one day when they bring their classes to attend one of our school student presentations! 👋🍎
