WOOD

Woodwork is a great practical subject that allows students to explore their skills through individual production of practical work units.

Students participate in a class induction, which incorporates setting up classroom management guidelines, hand & power tool safety & general safety.

Students are required to present a design folio that contains a Design Brief, outlining important aspects of their production: constraints, specifications & considerations. Folios contain the criteria for evaluating the product.

During the early stages of the program, students develop a number of design options. Students then construct a work plan which contains the instructions for making the product. It includes a timeline, sequence of processes & list of tools, equipment & machines required. Students construct their product, extending previously learnt skills & acquiring new ones as they progress.

An evaluation of the end product is carried out with evidence being displayed in the student’s portfolio.

This program is a pathway to senior study, including VET Building & Construction.
