2025 Product Design Technology – Wood

Safety is the cornerstone of a productive workshop environment at the College, and Occupational Health and Safety guidelines are crucial in the product design space.

At both our Melton and Cobblebank campuses, our staff reinforce the importance of these guidelines by consistently wearing the correct Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), promoting awareness for our students.

Senior students who use machinery are expected to follow strict safety protocols and wear appropriate PPE. This creates a safe, secure and efficient workshop where students' creativity can come to life.

Students start by creating small joinery boxes in Year 7 to crafting more complex furniture as they advance to senior levels, enhancing their skills and confidence in design.
