Coronavirus testing is no longer available at Merrilands Community Centre. If you have any of the symptoms, however mild, you should seek advice and get tested. To get further advice, call the 24-hour coronavirus hotline 1800 675 398.
To stem the spread of COVID-19, the Victorian Government has imposed Stage 4 restrictions for metropolitan Melbourne. These new restrictions impact how we interact with our community and we are working hard to adapt our practices to ensure we continue to provide PRACE services to our community.
The majority of our students and staff are currently learning and working remotely. Remote delivery will continue until we receive further government advice about the restrictions for face to face learning
We wish to assure you that the safety of our community is our highest priority as we continue to navigate this unprecedented period.
Please stay safe, stay connected and reach out if you need support.
The team at PRACE
All classes and services are now being delivered remotely.
For more information or to enrol in a course, please contact the office on 9462 6077
In line with State Government guidelines, PRACE College students and staff will return too remote learning during stage 4 restrictions. PRACE College will remain open for vulnerable young people who cannot learn at home.
Enrolments are open and more information about VCAL at PRACE College is available here.
People living in Melbourne and regional Victoria are now required to wear a face covering when leaving home. More information about face masks can be found here https://www.dhhs.vic.gov.au/
If you, your family or friends are from a culturally and linguistically diverse community and know someone who would benefit from receiving information on face masks in their own language, please help us by sharing this link.
