Arts Festival art

Rooms 4,5,& 6 had the opportunity to work with Bret de Thier on his Christchurch Arts Festival project. His 1972 logo was relaunched for the 2019 Arts Festival. His design is based on the Rose window from the Christchurch Cathedral. He got the children to rethink his design in a fresh and new way. Their designs were put onto posters and were exhibited in Turanga City Library. We went into the library to see the exhibition and we were presented with a poster (on display in our school office). The art works were also projected onto the old Rhydges hotel too which was an amazing treat for us to see.

Rooms 4,5 & 6 Arts Festival art goes on a grand scale!!

Harakeke Weaving

The Kiwis Reading Groups in Rm 14 & 15 have been learning how to weave with a super parent helper - Elisa! The students read lots of different stories about harakeke. They learnt about the protocols around how to harvest, handle and create a basket from flax. Don't they look amazing?! Thank you Elisa!!!
