Collie is a town with a very bright future, and one that offers real opportunity to make a difference.  While the area has historically been associated with coal mining and coal-fired power stations, Collie is undergoing a significant period of change.  Aided by the State government led ‘Just Transition’ program, our community is working to diversify its economic base and set up for long term prosperity. 

The Shire of Collie covers an area of 1,711 square kilometers.  Located 202 kms south of Perth, Collie is situated 59 kms inland nestled amongst dense jarrah forest.  Collie is home to the Nyoongar First Nation people and is situated in the Gnaala Karla Booja region.
