Western Australia’s border will be open to international visitors from March 3, which will allow Canning College students to join us on campus.
This means that international students entering Western Australia after 12.01am on March 3 will not be required to spend any time in quarantine. As indicated in correspondence sent earlier this week, students entering before the border opening date must isolate in approved accommodation for seven days. For information regarding entry into Western Australia before March 3 please visit our website here.
After March 3, international travellers into WA will be permitted with the following requirements:
- meet Commonwealth Government requirements to enter Australia;
- be fully vaccinated under the Commonwealth requirements, if eligible;
- have a registered G2G Pass;
- undertake a rapid antigen test on arrival (within 12 hours and report any positive result).
Students who are planning to travel to join us here in Perth are asked to provide us with flight and accommodation details before travelling to WA. This will allow us to arrange free transfers between the airport and accommodation.
From March 3, the WA State Government will provide a Rapid Antigen Test to each international arrival to meet the new interim controls. Interim testing arrangements will be in place for a minimum of two weeks and then be subject to an ongoing review.
During this transition period and until further notice, Canning College will continue to offer online programs. We are committed to supporting students in the pursuit of academic goals both on campus and online.
Further information regarding WA’s response to COVID-19 is available on the WA Government website here.
