Try-A-Trade with Year 9 and 10
//This week 10 of our students did Try A Trade with Skillhire in Forrestfield.
They learned carpentry, paving and bricklaying – building a paved area with a wall and picket fence around it.
They had a great time and learned about scholarship opportunities offered by the Construction Training Fund to support their pathway into the construction industry.
They had a blast!
