Our purpose-built technology facilities provide learning experiences in Food, Hard Materials & Design technology. 

Our students learn the correct processes in order to create a solution for an authentic need. This process includes learning knowledge, researching, developing skills, being creative and producing and evaluating the final outcome. Year 7 students attend the Technology Centre one day per week for half a year and rotate around the four technology rooms every 5 weeks.  The second half of the year, the Year 8's get their chance to experience the Technology Centre.

We service the technology needs of other local primary schools, catering for over 400 Year 7 & 8 students from Waitakere, Huapai, Riverhead, Matua Ngaru, Hare Krishna, Timatanga, Whenuapai and Waimauku Schools. 

Our teaching staff have extensive knowledge in their specialist areas, allowing them to offer students a depth of technology education that is engaging and motivating. The workshops are well resourced and offer students access to a wide range of materials.
