Welcome


 

Technology is intervention by design. It uses intellectual and practical resources to create technological outcomes, which expand human possibilities by addressing needs and realising opportunities.

Marlborough Technology Centre is a purpose-built facility delivering specialist technology education to year 7 & 8 students from 15 schools across the Marlborough region each year. 

 

Students move through a variety of well resourced learning areas including Food, Materials, Design, Biotechnology, Digital Robotics and Media. With its focus on design thinking, technology education supports students to be innovative, reflective and critical in designing new models, products, software, systems and tools to benefit people while taking account of their impact on cultural, ethical, environmental and economic conditions. 

 

Our highly trained teaching staff have extensive knowledge in their specialist areas, allowing them to offer students a depth of technology education that is engaging and motivating. We aim to provide rich contexts for learning, including authentic cultural contexts, and those that draw on the wider community.
