Why we should have a woodwork room at school

Bang, bang!  Smash, crack!  Whizz, snap, whirrr!  These are the noises you may hear in a busy woodwork classroom.  I believe that Halsey Drive School should definitely have a woodwork classroom.  It would be a place where students would learn valuable skills, have a chance to be creative and do some practical, hands-on activities.  


Many skills can be learnt and many things can be made in a woodwork room.  With careful teacher guidance, students will be able to sand, use a hammer, a drill and many more electric tools. You can also make almost anything.  For example: picture frames, bedside tables, pencil holders, storyboxes, space racks and functional things like spinners, pencil cases, sheds,rolling pins and phone holders.
 

Taking part in a woodwork class can provide you with the skills and knowledge for future jobs.  By doing this class you may discover that you really like building, making and designing things and creating products from start to finish.  Being involved in woodwork class may help you decide that you want to be a builder or carpenter in the future. Lots of other jobs also use tools such as plumbers, electricians, plasterers, mechanics and painters.
Next Paragraph
Many schools already have woodwork rooms so why can’t Halsey Drive School? There are many schools that have woodwork classes like Waikowhai Intermediate. I`n waikowhai intermediate the children have  specialist classes for 2 blocks a day. One of those rotations is hard technology . Also blockhouse bay intermediate they also have a woodwork room at their school so students will learn how to use tools and machinery to build from wood and other materials as well as develop skills in construction planning and management. Year 8 students will use their creativity to design and build a Tea-light candle holder.
Conclusion - Sum up your main ideas
So I guess now you will agree with me that we should have a woodwork room at halsey drive school a woodwork at school could teach students vital skills that they could use in future jobs.  So come on, support my idea, talk to your teachers and principals today. Let’s make this happen!
