It is called The Shed, and it is the powerhouse of a new program for students learning the basics of the building trade.
The Satterly Property Group has started a pre-apprenticeship training program to reduce the shortage of skilled trades people in the building industry - and 24 Year 11 students from Clarkson Community High School are its first group of learners.
The Shed, in Brighton Estate in Butler, is where practical skills are taught to Clarkson CHS students.
They do theory lessons in two adjoining classrooms.
The $300,000 initiative comes from a partnership between Satterly PG, Brighton Joint Venture, West Coast and Swan TAFEs and Alcock Brown-Neaves Training Group.
