Program approach

The Kids Woodworking Academy is a structured, skills-based program for children aged 10–15. This is real making—using real timber and real techniques in a professional woodworking environment, with safety-first supervision.

Personal tool kit requirement (mandatory)

Each child must purchase a starter tool set consisting of:

  • 1 Wooden Hand Plane
  • 1 Japanese Hand Saw

 

Cost: AED 279
Supplier: The Makers Society
Ownership: The tools belong to the student and will be used throughout the program and beyond.

What’s included

  • Tutor instruction and close supervision
  • Workshop tool access and safety equipment during sessions
  • Wood, hardware, and standard finishing materials for in-class projects (as specified in the term)
