TLP-3061.jpgOur dynamic curriculum within the Industrial Technology & Design Faculty (INTAD) provides students with a wide range of pathways. Students actively engage with traditional, contemporary and emerging technologies to develop innovative solutions to solve problems and create products by employing practical skills and technological processes. Boundaries are redefined by the ever-changing nature of technology and its impact on the design, manufacturing and construction industries. As emerging technologies such as 3D printing gain traction, students are provided with the latest technological devices and equipment to keep them interacting and innovating in an ever-changing world of design, manufacture and construction. Our innovative program encourages students to participate in external competitions such as the Australian ISSDC team to compete on the world stage at NASA, Kennedy Space Centre America. This is just an example of the many unique opportunities we provide for students here at Corinda.

Junior Secondary

Subjects delivered in year 7 to year 9 are semester based courses. These subjects introduce students to new and practical procedures such as joint construction, design, different material types and uses, and safe use of hand tools and basic machinery.
