You will get to work on an exciting design project, including a mix of hand drawings and collages before moving your design to the computer. Where possible, we try to take you out to a live construction site visit during the week to see the building process up close. 


If you are interested in a site visit opportunity, you will be required to provide your own steel toe capped safety boots, we can provide the hard hats and high vis vests. Sometimes boots can be borrowed from your school, but if you cannot provide the boots, don't worry! You can still get stuck into a variety of other tasks. 


*Please note that we are only able to take one student at a time, so make sure you apply as soon as possible to avoid missing out.*

When applying, answer the following questions
