Rangatahi Build a Stool, West Auckland's RE: MAKER SPACE, Thursday, 23 Jan, 9.30 am to 3.30 pm

Proudly brought to you by Auckland Council Waste Solutions!

For tweens and teens aged 10 – 16

Get the young person in your life working with woodwork tools to build a functional and beautiful stool in a day.

In this workshop teens will learn to use a drill and sander plus hand tools in detail. They will create, design and assemble their own functional piece of wooden furniture.

This one-day course is a great opportunity to spend quality time in a woodworking workshop, to develop their design thinking and to create functional and beautiful wood items.

Using wood off-cuts and mis-tinted paint, participants will get to give a second life to materials that may have otherwise ended up in the landfill.

This day will be about fun, sustainability and skill-building.

Note: Participants need to wear old clothing that can get paint on it and closed-toe shoes.

Note: Please bring snacks, lunch, and a drink bottle.
