Welcome to
Technology

Technology challenges students in a way unlike any other subject. Within areas such as control, food, communications, structural, dynamic, and bio-related technologies, creative design processes and materials, students work creatively and analytically to identify, trial and evaluate potential solutions, and eventually put their ideas into practice.

Technology has natural inter-relationships with other subjects such as the sciences, social sciences, languages, the arts and health and physical well-being.

As a subject technology allows students to:

· Learn through failure, recognise the value in alternatives and unexpected outcomes.
· Take risks, challenge their thinking, show initiative, make choices and be responsible for their own learning
