Construction

In our Building and Construction department we take on jobs from clients outside school. We are fortunate to have the opportunity to give our students a realistic and practical teaching environment. For a set daily fee, we do many different jobs together with our students. As you can see from the pictures, we have built garages and small buildings from the foundations and up. We have taken on outdoor jobs like masonry jobs, to indoor restorations and kitchen renovations.

The students do most of the work themselves with the teachers as supervisors and helpers. Through practical work our students learn about for instance: geometry, measurement, scale and how to read and follow floor plans. Combined with the practice with the different hand tools and electrical tools we are giving our students skills they otherwise wouldn't be able to acquire in a traditional classroom environment.
