What is Woodwork?
Woodwork teaches learners the art and science of working with timber — from reading technical drawings to cutting, shaping, joining, and finishing wood products.
Students work in a fully equipped workshop using professional-grade tools and machinery, learning both hand tool techniques and power tool operation under expert supervision.
This subject builds patience, precision, and a strong foundation for careers in carpentry, furniture making, construction, and product design.
