What's Happening This Week?

Preps
With a focus on illustrations and illustrators this year the preps have viewed the gorgeous pictures in the picture story book, Fox and Magpie. This week they are constructing a fox, solely using triangle shapes, to place on their painted desert backgrounds. Warm coloured crayons will be used to colour the fox, with children encouraged to layer and blend colours to create interesting effects.

Grade 3/4
Our bottle characters are well underway, with newspaper, wire and modroc being used to create the basic model ready for painting and decorating.

Grade 5/6
All our "You Can Do It" skills are being well utilised in this challenging and rewarding sewing project. Some bears are already at the stuffing stage! A great effort. A big thank you goes to the parents who have given their time to come and help the children construct their bears,
