The Annual Catholic Schools Broken Bay Battle of the Builders competition was held at MacKillop Catholic College on Thursday 10 November 2022. Participating schools included MacKillop Catholic College, St Edward’s College, St Leo’s Catholic College and St Peter’s Catholic College.

The competition fosters student’s communication, teamwork, organisation, and leadership skills. Empowering students with a skillset which prepares them for future success.

Students competed in pairs, completing a series of practical tasks which provided an opportunity to demonstrate the skills and knowledge which have been developed through study undertaken towards Certificate II in Construction Pathways. Competitions are designed by industry experts to assess the student’s knowledge, practical competence, and employability skills against a set of strict criteria.
