Henderson's Carvings

Henderson has been learning to carve at the Arts Centre.  He told us how he used a chisel and a hammer to make the cuts.  The adults came to supervise so no one got hurt.  We think Henderson is a great carver - well done!

Henderson's Tank

In the weekend I made a tank with bottles, a pencil and a spray can.  It has a gun at the top and caterpillar tracks to move on.  I had lots of fun making it with my sisters and brothers.
We all think Henderson did a great job using recycling materials to create a toy to play with.
Tumeke 12 have been making toys out of recycled materials too - check out all their toys by clicking here.

Art Classes

Some lucky children in Room 6 got to do some extra art with Janet (also known as Mrs Shepherd). They think that Janet is a wonderful art teacher, the best in the world.

Thank you for showing me your secret art tricks.  Drawing cars and houses was the best thing we did.  Michael

The best thing was drawing the sky tower.  It was fun.  Thank you Mrs Shepherd for teaching us.  Louis

Thank you Mrs Shepherd for teaching me how to draw shapes and blend colours.  I have to look carefully at things and then draw them.  Henderson

Blending with paint was exciting because you can make other colours.  Thank you Mrs Shepherd for teaching me how to draw blocks.  Bradley
