2nd Annual Manufacturing Day

Each October, students from BHNCDSB participate in the Annual Manufacturing Day. Secondary students visit manufacturers to get a better understanding of what they do and how it might be a future career option. This event was part of a North American movement to promote the Skilled Trades.
