Vocational Education and Training

Construction

Year 11 Construction students have been learning how to use a number of carpentry tools including the Drop Saw, Chisels, Planer and Jigsaw to create a Float, Timber Mallet and a Saw Stool project. 

Year 12 Construction has been busy applying their skills and knowledge to practical tasks in the 'Ag plot' including concreting and site preparation. The class completed the pour last week. The students did a fantastic job to produce a slab to a high standard. 

Manufacturing and Engineering

Year 11 Metal and Engineering students have been acquiring the skills required to fabricate a tool chest. This project requires students to work accurately with a wide range of fabrication tools and equipment to produce a quality project which the students should be able to use for many years to come. 

Year 12 Manufacturing students have been developing their skills in fabrication, spray painting and welding. We are about to start a vice project which allows students to use a variety of machining operations including lathe and milling operations.
