Materials is a highly practical subject where students will develop an excellent working knowledge of a variety of materials including wood, metal and plastics. Based in a workshop environment, students are encouraged to design and create unique projects and experiment with a host of different techniques.
Students will become familiar with industry-standard CAD packages and will be encouraged to value- add to projects using equipment such as laser-engravers, plasma cutters, vinyl cutters and 3D printing. Students will also incorporate basic electronics such as LED lighting into various tasks and may assist with various community projects.
Materials is recommended for both boys and girls and gives an excellent grounding for Technologies courses offered in Year 11 and 12.
