Our vocational division consists of five sections.
We have a carpentry section, a tailoring section, a computing section, a
horticultural section and a catering section for the children.
Carpentry
section
The carpentry department produces furniture for the
school, including tables, benches, windows, doors, beds, chairs and living room
furnishings. Most of the demand comes from PDO High school
itself. The carpentry department supplies construction materials for new buildings
and performs maintenance on existing buildings. Interested students can hone
their carpentry skills, which they wouldn’t be able to do in a normal class.
Tailoring
section
The tailoring class provides tailoring technique
training for children - especially girls - who are interested in learning about
sewing and designing. This includes the sewing of school uniforms, school bags,
shirts, etc.
Computing
section
The school has its own Information Technology
Department. The teachers in this department teach the students how to use
computers. They are taught how to use Office Programs, the Internet, Email and
more. The department is also responsible for the software- and hardware systems
of the school.
Horticulture
section
The school has its own school garden next to the
school compound. The children learn how to make compost and how to use the
resulting organic fertilizer. The also learn gardening planning techniques. As
a result, high-quality, safe, toxin-free vegetables are produced.
Catering
section
PDO High School has a catering training program for its students and staff. The school
kitchen is used for this training program. At times, we hire a local or foreign
professional cook.
