Last week in DT, Base 2 learned a variety of new skills in woodwork and made mechanical toys from wood.

During the lesson, children learned to use woodworking tools safely and correctly with the help of the staff in the room.

They learned to measure, mark and check the accuracy of the jelutong and dowel pieces that they needed to cut and also to use a bench hook effectively and safely.

Children learned that saws have sharp teeth and can be dangerous if not used properly.
