Wood Design Technology

Investigating & Designing: In design and technology, students combine practical and technological skills with creative thinking to design and make products that meet human needs. They learn to use current technologies and consider the impact of future technological developments. They learn to think creatively and intervene to improve the quality of life, solving problems as individuals and members of a team.

Producing: Students create a cutting list of quantities for their project and cost all components. Materials are ordered and acquired from various supplies. A plan or production is created and students work through the various stages of the construction.

Analysing & Evaluation: Throughout the production stage students analyse the methods they are using and make alterations where they may need to find an easier, safer or more appropriate method to complete a certain part of the construction.

Wood Furniture Joinery

Furniture/Joinery will look at various techniques and skills used in the joinery industry. Students will make a product where these skills will be used. Safe use and handling of hand tools and electrical tools will be employed and followed in this subject.

Students will look at:
• Design briefs
• Costing sheets
• Production Plans
• Finishing
• Evaluation on completion
​
This subject is a lead in to VCE Product Design & Technology.

What you will learn.
• Work shop Health and Safety
• Measuring and marking out
• Cutting and filling
• Hand tools and equipment
• Production planning and design briefs

This subject is a lead in to VCE Product Design & Technology 

2D & 3D Design

In this unit, students learn how to concept a scene in 2 dimensional (2D) form and model them into 3 dimensional (3D) assets. They will research and design a scene containing a character.
Through the design process, students write loglines, create written descriptions, and gather reference images to help sketch their character and environment.
​Students will then take these designs to block out and then model the scene using the 3D modelling software Maya.

Game Programming

Students will create a Third Person game using Unreal Engines Third Person Template.
Throughout the rest of the semester students design and implement parts to their game. Students learn how to code in the game engine and examine core coding concepts to prepare them for creating their game.
​Students use flow charts and written language to break down elements of a games mechanics. Students will have their games tested and reviewed by other students. They will then make changes based on feedback to finally build a playable game with a user interface and game mechanics.

Paddock to Plate

Have you ever wondered where our food comes from?
How do we get to enjoy such a wonderful array of different foods?
How’s it grown and what about all those indigenous ingredients?

You will learn about fresh, processed, free range, organic and sustainable foods, all while cooking your Favorite foods. Explore farming practices and the processes involved in producing your Favorite food products.

​Students will engage in a variety of both theory and practical classes developing their knowledge and gaining life long skills along the way.

Food Science

Food Science looks at why foods have the reactions they do while cooking, for example what makes bread rise?, what’s the browning effect on cakes and steaks?

We will also explore the different heat transfer methods of cooking, all while making delicious recipes. Students will investigate what is happening to their food and why.

​Students will engage in a variety of both theory and practical classes developing their knowledge including learning about nutrition and the Australian Guide to Healthy Eating and gaining life long skills along the way.

Textiles

Where do your clothes come from?
What are they made of?
Do you know who made them?

Would you like to develop your creative skills using fabric? Do you see yourself as a future fashion designer or interior designer? Then maybe this subject will interest you.

The Middle School Textiles course is very diverse and provides scope for you to learn and appreciate textiles and explore ways to upcycle various textiles items.

​Students in this class may gain experience in hand stitching, applique, beading, sequins, patchwork, machining, textiles crafts, fabric design and decoration. Students will have the opportunity to choose from a variety of projects including cushions, soft toys, tote bags or draw string bags. Students will use sewing machines, embroidery machines and overlockers to make various project items and learn various embellishment techniques for decoration purposes on different objects.
