Late last term, students from Concept to Construction completed their major project, a seesaw for the newly developed ELCC area. The project started with a design brief listing the features of the project. Students then designed their own CAD version of the seesaw using the design brief to drive their design ideas. From the list of seesaw designs, the students then selected the ‘best’ design, one that met the constraints of the design brief. Students then analysed the chosen 3D model to improve their design to comply with the Australian Standards. Once the seesaw design was approved, students then created a cut list, proposed timeline and a list of roles and responsibilities for their group to complete over the construction phase. The timber used in this project had been graciously donated by One Forty One Forestry Group.

Once the project was completed, students installed the seesaw in the ELCC play area for all children to use and enjoy, a great project with an amazing end result!
