Girls in Carpentry

This course is for all females who are interested in the Trades, particularly in building. It will be an all-female small group, learning renovation building skills and safe practices. It does not require any prior knowledge.

It is open to students from Yrs 11, 12 or 13.

The course will be overlaid on the weekly timetable for one day. This means that for the one day a week, students will come out of their school day and spend all day on the building site under the guidance of our female building tutor. They will need to arrive at school for that one day a week in their safety uniform. (Details for this, hi vis top, safety boots or shoes etc, will be given out later. Students will need to buy these items).

Please note that students already in an Academy at MHS will most likely not be able to be in another Academy. This is due to Ministry funding rules. However, if this is the case please still apply as funding situations can change.

Note: There will not be a separate AWVA application form this year as all the information will come through schoolpoint or be covered at an interview or in the particular Academy contract.

If you have any questions email Sarah Maxwell on [email protected] . When emailing please state which academy course you wish to apply for.
