Calendar art-lizards

Miss Chalk helped us to create these fantastic lizards for our calendar art.

Ukulele

Shane and Mrs McHale came and taught us for 4 ukulele lessons. We learned -what the different parts of the ukulele is called -how to hold the ukulele -how to strum -how to play the chords C, F and G. We sand Old McDonald, A ha ka ma, The lion sleeps tonight, Let it shine and Don't worry be happy. Some children were lucky enough to get to play the kazoo or tamborine. Shane was really nice. It was fun strumming the ukulele. Sarah I love the coloured ukuleles because they are bright and cool. Olivia I liked singing the songs. McKenzie I like learning all the chords and getting better at it. Rebecca I got to play the kazoo. I learnt how to play chords. Logan I like playing the kazoo because it was fun. Ray I like playing the black ukulele because it is my favourite colour. Kaitlin I like playing the green lady ukulele because it smells fresh. Soana I liked making up cool animals for Old MacDonalds farm. Ruth I enjoyed playing the kazoo because it makes cool noises. Daniel P I liked taking Shane's advice and buying a kazoo. Campbell I like playing the great white ukulele because of the name. Micah

Column art

Using inspiration Mrs Wilson found on the internet we created these fabulous column art. They remind us of Dr Seuss's drawings. Do you think they look 3D?

Sports Drawings

Jane Lloyd taught some us some techniques for drawing sports figures. We were really surprised at what we created.
