Open Tech offers schools the opportunity to utilise Yarra Ranges Tech School spaces without committing to a specific program. Teachers can bring their classes, design content, and teach according to their own curriculum, allowing students to explore and experiment with various technologies. This flexibility enables students to undertake entrepreneurial projects and leverage the tech school’s resources to develop innovative solutions and business ideas.

Students at Yarra Ranges Tech School have access to numerous laser cutters, which can support projects in Science, Art, or Technologies. These tools enable students to explore entrepreneurial ventures, such as manufacturing staff ID badges for their school, fostering practical skills and innovation.
Yarra Ranges Tech School (YRTS) has six small Roland CNC machines, ideal for prototyping. These machines work seamlessly with our Fusion 360 and CNC Tech short program option. Students can design and prepare their projects at school and then use YRTS facilities to cut their projects, providing a hands-on, practical learning experience.
3D printing at Yarra Ranges Tech School allows design students to rapidly create a variety of items, from intricate designs to scaled skeletons. YRTS provides the necessary consumables, while students supply the creative designs, enabling hands-on learning and innovation.
Our Roland TrueVIS printer at Yarra Ranges Tech School enables students to print posters, stickers, banners, paintings, and clothing. Students can build their own brand or complete whole-school projects, such as T-shirts for school musicals, posters for Visual Communication, or stickers to brand products. Depending on the project’s scope, schools may need to cover consumable costs.
