Matariki Kites

This week we have studied the traditional shapes and styles of Maori Kites. As part of our Matariki celebrations we have made our own kites and tested them out. We enjoy learning about our history and traditions. We are exploring how being a great learner often is a result of not getting things right the first time. Sometime we have to try many different ways to be successful. We had a lot of fun in between the down pores of rain!

Our Cultural Celebration Sculpture.

We are sanding a massive slab of wood to make a sculpture. This sculpture will help celebrate the different cultures in our school and our community. The next step will be to varnish the wood.

Guess What This will Be?

Today I walked into Room 4 and saw this 

big piece of wood on the table.

I wonder what it will be?

What do think it will be used for?

As the saying goes...watch this space.
