Thursday 13th September
The Year 6 have been using their Thursdays while the Year 7's have been at technology to learn about Printmaking. We read the Māori legend "How the Kiwi Lost his Wings." Each child selected a native bird of their choice and they have carved their design onto wood. From this 'block' they have made prints which look amazing.
We then recarved our wood block and reprinted over the top of our initial print. This has allowed the bottom colour to show through and highlight parts of our design.
Check out the powerpoint of us in action. Our finished products will be up in our Kōtare space by the end of the term. Be sure to come for a visit!
