Thank you for taking the time to visit the Coodanup College website, and welcome. I hope it is informative and gives you an understanding of the many diverse educational experiences available at Coodanup.
A co-educational public college, Coodanup College is located 80km south of Perth in the beautiful, coastal City of Mandurah. Catering for years 7-12, we aim to instil ambition and drive in our students throughout their six years at Coodanup, supporting them to gain confidence in their abilities.
Family, carers and the community are integral to our operation, and we welcome the involvement and input into our college, where student learning is at the centre of everything we do…
More school = higher grades, increased confidence, more friends, brighter future.
It all starts with something as simple as showing up.
No attendance = no advantage. Every day at school is a chance to learn, sharpen your skills, and stay on track, because each lesson builds on the last. The more you show up, the more confident you become, ready to tackle whatever comes next.
Being present has its perks. You’re there for the laughs, the memories, and the friendships that make school more than just lessons. Miss the day, miss the way.
Most importantly, regular attendance sets you up for a brighter future, helping you build the habits, knowledge, and opportunities that go beyond the classroom.

🔥⚙️ Fantastic Fabrication Career Taster! ⚙
Selected Year 9 students recently attended the Fantastic Fabrication Career Taster at South Metropolitan TAFE’s Naval Base Campus, where they explored exciting pathways in fabrication and welding trades.
Students had the opportunity to test their skills using the high-tech welding simulators used by first-year apprentices and they impressed everyone! Their results exceeded the expectations of the Welding Trainers, showing great focus, skill and enthusiasm for learning new industry techniques.
Fabrication and welding trades are in high demand and can lead to well-paid careers, with skilled workers needed across industries such as Defence, construction, agriculture and mining. These Career Taster opportunities help students see how practical skills can lead to rewarding career pathways after school.

🐾 Design Your Own Support Dog Competition
Earlier this term, our very own Educational Support Dog Vino paid a visit to our Year 7 students and gave them a tail-wagging challenge… the “Design Your Own Support Dog” Competition! 🐶
The task? Create a poster all about what makes a great support dog. We received so many paw-some entries packed with creativity, colour and fantastic facts that narrowing them down was no easy task. After some serious sniffing around, we managed to fetch the top 27 designs.
From there, the final decision was left up to the expert himself… Vino! 🐕
After carefully looking through the finalists (and giving a few approving tail wags), Vino chose a very deserving winner, 🏆 McKenzie! Her poster was filled to the brim with amazing information about support dogs and showed just how important these incredible animals are.
A huge round of a-paws for McKenzie, and a big well done to all the students who entered the competition. Your ideas were simply paw-fect!
Of course, none of this would happen without Vino’s fabulous handler, Jodie, who helps make sure Vino is always ready to support and inspire our students.
