Lesley and Up Cycling

Wow we are so busy. Today we had a visit from Lesley who teaches us about looking after our environment. Today we learnt about up cycling and some of the wonderful things you can do with old teddy bears. She told us about some Year 8 students who collected bears from the tip and then turned them into pyjama bags, door stops and even draught stoppers. Amazing ideas, what an inspiration.

Art on the Quay

Yesterday we walked down to the art gallery and viewed our art. It looks amazing and it was so exciting to see our art up in a gallery. It will be up for 3 weeks and we are hoping that they sell.

Kiwi Christmas

We had the opportunity to participate in the Art on the Quay Kiwi Christmas art exhibition. Over the last few days we have been coming up with ideas and working with Mrs Keats and Mrs McRandle to create some beautiful canvases. These will all be on display and for sale at the Kaiapoi Art Gallery.

Golf

We had a great time learning how to play golf.



 

Calendars

This year we have been inspired by Lola the crazy dachshund.

     

  
      
     


Lola's Friends



                              

So we then decided to create our calendars.

Didjeribone

Today we had a visit from Tjupurru and he plays the didjeribone. This is an Australian made  instrument fusing the elements of the didjeridoo and trombone. He shared with us his journey and how to create music using a loop. We had a great time.
