For young people who need a little time to readjust to the learning environment due to personal circumstances which may have impacted on their learning and social development. Year 11 students engage in practical activities giving them time to reset before returning to school.

Workshops such as up-cycling, carpentry and bike and general maintenance, are run by experienced facilitators and people from the world of work, giving our young people an insight as to what steps they need to take to get where they want to be.

Essential work skills will promote communication, creativity, teamwork, organisational and problem solving skills.
