Off Site Construction Builds Good Reputation!

It All Measures Up

Students apply their construction skills to replace a porch on a century home in Wingham.

Members of the off-site construction class are already out building ties with the local communtiy and a good reputation as well! The off site construction class is in its second year now and is set up in a way that students can learn and apply valuable skills on a real job site.

Mixing Cement

Off site construction teacher Mr. Steve McKague keeps a watchful eye on the job site.

The class is well equipt to take on almost any build or repair project and has the ability to travel a moderate distance to a work site. If you have a project that you think our students could tackle then contact Mr. Steve McKague or telephone the high school at 519 357 1800.
