Bushfire Centre of Excellence Opening
The Bushfire Centre of Excellence has reached PC! Marking a new era in bushfire management, the Karla Katitjin (meaning ‘fire knowledge’ in Noongar language) facility was officially opened by Premier Mark McGowan and Emergency Services Minister Francis Logan on Monday.
Proudly constructed by Perkins Builders, this new, purpose-built facility will bring together volunteer and career firefighters, bushfire practitioners, traditional land owners, researchers and scientists to share their bushfire management knowledge, skills and practices.
With an outstanding safety performance testament to the collaborative effort of all involved, Perkins would like to extend our sincere thanks to Department of Fire and Emergency Services, Department of Finance, SITE Architecture Studio, Shire of Murray and of course our valued subcontractors and suppliers.
Congratulations and thank you once again to everyone involved on this fantastic project.
