Hey guys,
Based off the following design I have to:
Im just so stuck on this part I dont know where to begin for my Access Lists and routing. I'm thinking of using EIGRP as my routing protocol because its so easy to confiugre.
Thanks for any help guys, it is much appreciated!

depends on the task,
EIGRP will work, so will OSPF, I just never really consider EIGRP and use OSPF.
set up OSPF neighbourshipsbetween Melbourne and sydney and brisbane and sydney and propagate routes that way. once done and you can ping between all vlans, close it down with ACLs.

Well,
if this is a real scenario and you are not skilled is OSPF, I suggest to use EIGRP, OSPF is much more complex, could be harder to troubleshoot and requires more design (defining areas and their types, assign DR and BD roles,...).
Regarding ACLs, I suggest to configure them specifying which source subnets could access another subnet and deny everting else, not denying specific subnets and permitting everything else. This last way works as well but in a production environmental could be dangerous; for example if, in future, you will change or add a subnet to Admin environmental and forgot to update the ACL, host in this subnet could access Student vlan's.
Personally I don't like ACL for security, another way to segregate the two environments could VRF Lite but it requires a deeper study of the scenario particularly about the WAN technology.
Finally, if this scenario is for studying, I suggest to try both OSFP and EIGRP ;-)
