Tool Use (at the Sustainability Centre)
Using a tool effectively is an art and teaching others how to use it can be difficult if you have not done it yourself. We take you through the knife, axe and saw to show you how to safely sharpen, use and make a couple of items for you to take home. Issues covered and what to do if they get stuck!

Licence or book privately. Aimed at 14 to 19 year olds, this qualification can be combined over a year or as a stand alone subject and comes in Level 1 and Level 2 formats. We have a history of spectacular results for children who struggle in a classroom environment.
