During Term 2 we have been preparing for the Hamilton East School Arts Festival to be held in Term 3. Our Takahe hub (rooms 19 & 20) have completed three pieces of art each over the term. The students worked in three groups with one teacher, and then rotated every three weeks. As we have 60 students, we have been extremely lucky to have Tisharne, a student teacher take one of the groups. 

Miss Rasmussen worked with students using pastel to complete whānau koru, a representation of each student's own family.

Tisharne worked with students to create patterns and Māori designs which were illustrated on stars, representing Matariki.

Mrs Tyler taught students how to weave in a circular design, taking into consideration the colours and patterns which would be used.

We look forward to seeing you at the Art Festival in Term 3!
