All TAS students were

while engaged in a range
of
challenging
design

Year 8 students of Technology Mandatory further
extended their designing skills by creating appetising
lunch designs, leisure shorts and entertaining
animated movies.
Year 9 students of Textiles Technology produced

character corsets. The students gained inspiration
for their designs while visiting a theatre costume
showcase at Enmore theatre.

designing and analysing healthy eating.
Year 10 students in Textiles Technology designed
