NOTE: The school will cover the material costs for up to a value of $50. However, if you would like, for example, to build a car trailer which is galvanised, registered and WOF for a cost of approximately $1500, then you will have to pay for the extras. Either, you pay at the office and use materials provided at school or you can purchase your own materials and bring it into school.
