Dream Catcher

We really stretched the art side of our brains making these awesome dream catchers! Team Tekau had to make sure they had a fantastic Growth Mindset to complete this tricky task. You all did really well, Ka pai Team Tekau and sweet dreams😴😊

Matariki

What a fun sharing afternoon for Matariki! We loved sharing some of our Tuakana-Teina learning, showing our whanau the Matariki Macarena then planting some vegetables together! It was great to show the Matariki work we have been doing in class as well - our art, korowai cloak and acrostic poems! Thanks to the whanau that were able to come along! 

Artist visit

Today Team Tekau with Rooms 9 and 11 were very lucky to have local artist Raewyn Harris come in and teach us some of her fantastic art skills! We learned simple tricks that make our Art look better, like grouping patterns in 3's and different colour combinations that work together! We created some amazing Māori Art! Awesome work everyone!!

Maui and the Sun

One big focus in our reading this term is being able to retell a story with the main events in order. We read this Maori tale and retold the story in a sequence strip. Afterwards we made korus and did weaving to create our own suns. They look so neat, this is an awesome sample by Elijah! Ka pai Team Tekau!

Colour My World Competition

Hey, hey, hey! Check out these Room 10 entries for the 'design a cover' competition. Some amazing art skills in these designs. Great to see the name of the show and year prominently displayed on most of the entries. I wonder who will win the $20 Warehouse vouchers? I am glad I do not have to choose the winners - it won't be an easy task! Good luck to who ever has to do it....

Super entries!

Team 2 Art Day Underway...

Te Ika a Maui

    Miss Pierson worked with Room 10 and showed them many of Robyn Kahukiwa's art works. They  talked about her style and what makes her art work distinctive. Their task was then to produce an art work that tells the story of Te Ika a Maui in the style of Robyn Kahukiwa. It looks outstanding up on the wall - tino pai Room 10!

Robyn Kahukiwa's style is made distinctive because of her simplistic
bodies and the way she often depicted the head on it’s side. 

Jordan's and Ezrah's Awesome Art Work!

Mrs Perry this is Jordan and Ezrah's awesome art work. Hope you like it Mrs Perry!

Awesome Bicycle Art

Today we worked on creating several bicycled themed art projects. The details in these pieces created by Cairo & Ezrah, Sharnika & Nina, Reicoe & Divaan and  Mathias & Aradia is absolutely amazing. Tomorrow these and other art pieces will be presented to our sponsors to thank them for donating funds for our track, bikes and helmets. We watched a you tube clip and followed the directions for drawing the bikes. Adding the shapes and colouring them took quite a long time! Other students worked on creating 'pop art' styled crayon and dye pictures. Well done everyone, these results are stunning!
