Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Mr L. Kanuta, P. Simpson.

Welcome to the Level 2 Multi Skills Academy.
Nau mai ki te Whare Aronui o Tiriwa. The Multi Skills Academy welcomes you.
This academy is available to Years 11, 12 and 13 students who wish to learn renovation skills at MHS. The students will have the opportunity to renovate a house on site at MHS, learning the skills required as they go. The skills could include paving, plan reading, painting, landscape skills etc. 


This Academy is over-laid on the school timetable, meaning the students come out of their normal classes when the academy is on one day a week. Students select six other subjects plus the Multi Skills academy. The Academy runs all day one day of the week, (actual day TBC). The students are expected to catch up on the work they miss on the day they are doing Multi Skills.
All the standards covered in this course will contribute to the NCEA qualification at the given level. The standards in the course are unit standards. This course can lead to the full time Carpentry academy at Level 2 in the following year.

In the Multi Skills Academy the standards are at Level 1 and Level 2. 

The exact details change each year, depending on the situation with the building site.

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.
