We start the Earie Tech College experience with a "Time Out" term, combining practical tech skills learning with essential SACE subjects living in a residential cruise ship with a team of 16 students and their teachers, to reset the student's learning pathway. THEN a family decision STAY OR LEAVE.
If stay, Aerie Tech offers a 4 year Progression to complete SACE and start River skills VET certificate courses. Advanced students will have the opportunity to earn with River Tourism industry business skills working the boats.
Mannum slipway workshops and school ship moorings is our planned Tech College home port. The slipway and moorings has an existing viable income from riverboats slipway servicing and Moored riverboats. Aerie Tech College proposes to purchase the continuing business and its waterfront land to continue its substantial existing land use rights.
All Aerie students will be resident on Avoca trust cruise School ships, home ported at the Slipway marina property. Lifestyle is backpacker to build team mentality, self help and keep costs as low as possible.
Aerie Students learn Transferrable river skills that can progress to advanced VET Shipbuilding in the Submarine Project, Port Adelaide or remain with Murray region Tourism industry.

"TS Coocoon" is our "Time Out" entry school ship for 16 students, sleeping backpacker style on the main deck with Teacher ensuite cabins on top deck.
"Time Out" cruises the length of the Murray in SA for the entry term.

Canoeing the tranquil wetland off the main channel of the Murray River provides a brain reset. The water is glassy and stained a deep, reflective tea-tree green. Australian Murray-Darling Basin waters are our temporary home.
