Our Technologies team is thrilled to provide our Foxwell students with exciting opportunities to participate in our various subjects and projects.

2022 is exciting for us with a whole new suite of workshops and kitchens to which we can introduce our students as well as new courses in Year 9.

Our Year 7 and Year 8 students will rotate through a number of different units this year.

This term, Year 7s have begun either their Economics and Food Specialisation unit or their Digital Technologies unit and will swap in Semester Two. Our Year 8s have begun either their Materials and Engineering Workshop unit or their Economics and Food Specialisation unit. Simalr to the Year 7s, in Semester Two, students will swap units.

Students in Year 9 Personal Endeavour Courses [PECs] have begun planning for their folios with Build it and they will come students planning a camp chair; Sustainable Industrial Technologies students a working on a pallet project; our Maritime students are planning an engineered water craft; and our Hospitality students are designing different street food-style dishes and a dessert. There is much to be excited about! I cannot wait to see the results of these plans in the coming weeks.

Please be reminded that for students to enter any workshop or kitchen, the appropiate training must have been completed satisfactorily, a signed permission form returned and students must be wearing full leather (non-porous) footwear. If you have not yet received information from classroom teachers regarding these requirements, please be advised it is on its way. Once you receive it, please be sure to return it ASAP.
