Two class 11 students are doing a Gateway course to learn the building trade.
Part of the course involves working with a local builder to learn these skills in a hands-on environment. If you are a registered builder or you know one who would like the help of an enthusiastic class 11 student, please get in touch with Merlin merlin.f@raphaelhouse.school.nz. Details are as follows:
Must be a registered builder
Student will work on the building site one day in the week, for the whole day.
Minimum of 10 weeks, though this is often extended.
Students can make their own way to the building site, ideally in Lower Hutt area, or Upper Hutt, Petone, Porirua.
Gateway course is overseen by the school and BCITO.
