Technological and applied studies (TAS) courses in Year 7-10, aim to build real-world technical skills to prepare our young men for success in the 21st century. We offer a wide array of learning contexts within the areas of STEM (Science, Technology Engineering and Mathematics) to challenge gifted students and encourage them to develop practical knowledge.
Digital Technologies, Food Technology and Engineering are our most popular subject areas due to outstanding academic performance, teacher expertise and high levels of student engagement. Our subjects expand student understanding of how mathematics and sciences are used in technology industries while honing their ability to manage projects and work in teams. In fact, Problem and Project-Based Learning underpin many learning units including mechatronics, aerodynamics, 3D CAD/CAM, civil structures and software development projects.
The continuum of technology learning is:
