Wollongbar
TAFE NSW Wollongbar sits on the lands of the Bundjalung people. The campus is on 140 pristine acres and is situated between Lismore and Ballina. Our region is known for its rich farmlands and produces a variety of sub-tropical fruit crops.
Established courses on offer reflect local interests like agriculture, horticulture, fashion, and information technology. Other favoured courses include automotive, plumbing, children's services, and community services.
While the teachers at TAFE NSW Wollongbar are students' key resource, free thinking is encouraged in the learning process. By listening to the group, students consider others' input before making decisions, allowing classes to learn together. Students complete courses knowing they need to adapt with their ever-changing community, and learn to develop the valuable life-long skill of independent thinking. TAFE NSW is committed to educating, enriching, and empowering our students.
