Marae Vist



On the 28th of August good shepherd school went to Unitec Marae. When we got there the owners of the Marae came and told us stories about them and the carvings. After that it was morning tea and the scones were delicious. Then the year five and six boys performed a Haka. Soon we had to leave and I bet everybody was sad.

Mixed media- Visual Arts





You hold the future in your hands. 




In Term 2 our Visual Arts focused was on Mixed Media. We finally finished our pieces of art at the end of the term. We started off by creating two hands, most of us copied our own hands as templates. One hand represents our past and the other hand our future. We used lots of different materials and symbols to make our artwork as well as exploring a range of different techniques with watercolor paint. This is my art work.

Assembly




Last week Room 6 performed their assembly. Our main entertainment was a drama circle on occupations. We also displayed our mixed media we made in term 2. Some people also shared about what they put on their art and why. We all had so much fun preparing and presenting our assembly.





Here are some pictures of our assembly:

There were also people who did the prayers of the faithful. Overall prayers was a big success and everyone enjoyed it.
