Across Melbourne, schools are quietly improving how students and staff move through their grounds — with new access paths and ramps helping bring facilities in line with evolving safety and accessibility standards. Galcon Contractors, a Melbourne-based concreting firm, was recently engaged by the Department of Education to deliver a series of upgrades across multiple schools. These included the construction of concrete pathways and compliant access ramps, designed to support ease of movement and improve everyday usability.

The upgrades were delivered across multiple sites during school holiday periods, ensuring no disruption to school operations. Galcon’s civil-scale project experience and detailed scheduling capabilities made them a natural choice for coordinating the rollout.

With a growing reputation for delivering high-quality concreting solutions in the education, government, and commercial sectors, Galcon Contractors continues to support infrastructure that’s built to last — and built to serve.

Galcon Contractors Helps Improve Access Across Melbourne Schools with Smart, Practical Upgrades

Women from the South Coast of NSW have a unique opportunity to explore the construction industry, with a behind-the-scenes tour of the Eurobodalla Regional Hospital.

The Australian Constructors Association (ACA), supported by the NSW Government, has launched the "It's Possible" campaign to encourage women—especially those mid-career—to consider switching to the construction industry.

ACA CEO Jon Davies said women with life experience already have the skills to succeed in construction.

“Switching to construction doesn’t mean starting from scratch. Most women who make the transition earn more and find more fulfilling work from day one,” said Mr Davies.

“By offering women the chance to visit active construction sites like the Eurobodalla Regional Hospital, they can witness firsthand the exciting opportunities the industry offers. We just need them to take the first step.”

“It also gives women the chance to see behind the scenes of a project that will leave a legacy for the wider community and support locals for decades to come.”

The Eurobodalla Regional Hospital is currently under construction and will feature a new Emergency Department, an intensive care unit, surgical and operating theatres, and a day-stay surgical unit spread across three clinical levels. Other services will include the region’s first paediatric department and a contemporary maternity unit, supporting high-quality, patient-centred care.&nbsp;The tour offers a chance to explore a major construction site that will shape the future of healthcare on the South Coast of NSW.

The "It’s Possible" campaign features inspiring stories from women who have successfully transitioned into construction from careers in banking, retail, hospitality and more. One of these women, Moretta, who made the leap from claims management to construction as she wanted a change.

“I was stuck at a desk ten hours. It’s the variety of career opportunities that you have in the industry is what I like the most. It’s been a really good change for me,” Moretta said.

The campaign invites women to register for exclusive, one-day-only tours of major infrastructure projects across NSW, including the Eurobodalla Regional Hospital. Participants will get an insider's look at what it’s like to work in construction and hear from women who have made a successful career switch.

“It’s a rare opportunity to go behind the scenes and witness firsthand the lasting impact this industry has,” said Mr Davies.

“Beyond financial stability and career growth, construction offers the chance to contribute to something that will benefit future generations. If you’ve ever thought about a career change, now’s the time to take that first step.”

The Eurobodalla Regional Hospital site tour will be held on 1 May from 12 – 3pm. Spots are limited.
