Woodworkers Academy is a Peninsula based company dedicated to teaching children of all ages the art and joy of woodworking. Our classes will introduce students to various wood working hand tools, building techniques, & math skills that they will use and benefit from for the rest of their lives. All of our newcomers will start by making a spin top, which gives them a foundational introduction to each of our tools and how to use them, after which they can choose from an assortment of pre picked projects as well as create ideas of their own. Projects can include birdhouses, toys, treasure chests, book shelves and whatever we can think of. Using our imagination is half the fun! The tools we use include brace drills, egg beater drills, try squares, coping saws, hand saws, c-clamps and other various small hand tools. This program offers children a creative outlet whilst learning vital skills that can serve them throughout their entire life.
