Fifty years of NAIDOC 🖤💛❤️

6–13 July

This NAIDOC Week, Hutchies proudly celebrates the theme ‘The Next Generation: Strength, Vision & Legacy’ — a powerful reminder of the enduring contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples across generations.

Through our award winning Statim Yaga initiative, Hutchies has helped more than 800 Indigenous Australians start construction careers and spent over $100 million with Indigenous businesses in our supply chain. We’re proud to keep backing the next generation through education, training, sponsorships, and community programs.

We honour the legacy of Elders, the strength of First Nations communities, and the vision of young leaders shaping the future. Together, we’re building more than structures — we’re building a future grounded in respect, opportunity, and shared pride.

Let’s celebrate the stories, the strength, and the spirit that continue to shape our journey.

Next gen trades. Hutchies’ Statim Yaga Trade Pathways program is live at our Murwillumbah High School refurb project.

So far we’ve hosted 80 students on site – providing them a unique insight into the 70+ career pathways available in construction.

This program builds on Hutchies’ extensive experience working with schools to provide hands on training opportunities for kids to explore a potential trade.

We’re working with the NSW Government’s Regional Industry Education (RIEP) program and Skills NSW to bring this initiative to schools across Northern Rivers.

Spotlight on Hutchies’ finalists in the 2024 NAWIC Queensland Awards for Excellence.

Britney King has been nominated in the McIlwain Apprentice / Trainee / Student of the Year Award.

Britney is a dedicated cabinet making apprentice at Hutchies Joinery, demonstrating exceptional skills and leadership qualities. Her journey began in high school with a Certificate I in Engineering, leading to her enrolment in Hutchies’ Australian Training Works (ATW) program, where she earned a Certificate I in Construction.

As one of only two female apprentices in her workshop, Britney has earned the respect and support of her peers and management through her dedication, independence, and strong work ethic. Committed to professional development, she looks forward to expanding her skills and potentially pursuing a dual trade in the future. Britney is a role model for women and young people pursuing a pathway the construction industry, consistently demonstrating excellence and a positive attitude.

Hutchies Training recently hosted a Try’a Trade with 40 students in Year 9 from Pacific Pines State High School at our Lagoon project in Main Beach.

This is a unique opportunity for students to tour a real life construction site, hear from and talk to experienced tradies, and gain an understanding of the exciting opportunities available in construction.

There are more than 70 different career pathways in construction, and they’re all accessible through Hutchies.

Try’a Trade is delivered in partnership with our friends at Construction Skills Queensland - CSQ.

If you know a student who might be interested in the Try’a Trade program, visit the CSQ website for more information: https://l.hutchi.es/csq-tryatrade

So proud of our apprentices who nailed the Wet Framing Area Workshop! Over the two days the students learnt a variety of bathroom framing tips and tricks, as well as being taught how to install baths and shower trays. The final product looks good enough to take a dip in wouldn't you agree?
