One of the first posts on this blog was the famous Mudgee jeep project we build during Stage 4 Industrial Tech Timber – Toy making. Find the link to the post here which contains the drawings and the 3d model. Here’s a picture I just found (the only one in focus) of a student project from about 2008/9 sitting in a folder just gathering virtual dust. Other photos in this folder contain a fuzzy Mr Wheeler pulling a face and various fuzzy shots of students working.
A Bossley Park High School Year 11 student in western Sydney has set up this survey as a research tool for his major project in Design and Technology. Follow the link to complete the survey. And any Mudgee Design & Technology or Industrial Technology students wanting to set up a similar system then you know where to come, TAS staffroom! We’re here to help.

Imagine turning up for work experience with gear you had made and know how to use. You can make the right impression if you want. It only takes effort, patience, listening, watching, thinking and trying. When you choose VET Construction make it count.
What are you gonna write on my report sir?
Well now you will know simply by looking up in J7. Signage has been applied to assist you in understanding what type of students (future apprentices and trades people) we want to help you become. No longer will you need to log off Facebook and head to the Board of Studies and read the official Industrial Technology Performance Descriptors. Get smart, get the report comment and grade you deserve by aiming to be a student who can…
