Throughout the cold winter months, two students have been dedicating their own time and efforts to help further fellow Newingtonian’s knowledge of Woodwork. With a clear educational brief set by Dr Mulford, these students have been working hard to design and manufacture an interesting, artistic and educational timber display to help develop students understanding and awareness of the materials around them.

The initial concept was developed around a similar display seen by Dr Mulford on a recent visit to The King’s  School Auckland. I would like to thank Pierce McConnell (12/MA) and James Lloyd (12/FL) for their continued efforts with this project, as they have dedicated their time to help develop a wonderful teaching resource and a focal point to the entrance of the magnificent Technology wing, whilst also working on their own Major works.

Year 12 Woodwork Showcase

Coinciding with the latest Concordia Gallery exhibition And Finally … Year 12 Woodwork boys also had the opportunity to showcase their major works in a professional gallery space. Unfortunately, due to HSC marking restrictions, these works were only shown for one night only and have now been packed away ready for marking. But you can still see the works and their smiling craftsmen. Enjoy!
