On Friday we went to the Groynes. We found some interesting creatures in the water. We caught them from the river. We saw some geese on the grass. We also saw some pukeko and lots of ducks. We tried to catch some insects, but some people did not catch any insects. They kept trying. We had activities to do and they where fun activities. We loved the Groynes. We found out how the Groynes got its name. We found out if we put rubbish on the ground or in the water you can kill the insects and bugs.

Strike Performing

Strike

Today we went to STRIKE and we watched them make music with fire.  It was fun.  We heard them sing, well not sing....scream.  We heard them play lots of different drums.  They were funny and we loved it so much.  It was so loud!

Before STRIKE played music with fire they were sitting down at a table with cans.  They made different beats with the cans.  When STRIKE were making beats with the cans, one of the cans opened!

Strike

We liked the Tongan drums and the rain storm song.  We liked how they screamed!  It was so fantastic. They all wore the same t-shirts, it was so cool.  We loved the show, the boys were funny.  Thanks STRIKE!

Abstract ART

Christchurch Art Gallery, Te Puna O Waiwhetu Screen Printing Lesson:

Today we went to the relocatable east and we learnt about abstract art. First we did the screen printing.  We wrote our name on the back of card and each group had to line up and wait for their turn.  When it was your turn you had to screen print your paper.  The lady put paint on the screen and you used the squeegee to go back and forth.  You then opened the lid of the screen and took your piece of paper off the screen printer.  After the screen printing we put dye on the paper and blew with the straw to move the paint around.
