In Middle School Year 6 & 7 complete three 12 week rotations through our three D&T courses: D&T Cooking, D&T Media and D&T Materials (more frequently referred to by the boys as Woodwork.) Each 12 week rotation is designed to engage boys in "hands on" activity that helps them see the benefits of pre-planning, the importance of design, the value of collaboration and develop some specific technical skills on a variety of equipment. They are also immersed in the language of the subject and many of the protocols around safety, hygiene and maintenance. They also experience the joy of a tangible end product. The second rotation for the year commenced last week.
