Some of our minecraft bridge creations





For Minecraft Club today, the students were given the task of creating a bridge that people can either walk over or under.  We all used a different approach to create something really cool.  Some of us even put fish into our water.  Well done on using your creativity and persistence.

Our calendar art is finished and looks great!

In Room 10 we created 'Tui's in Flax' pictures using a mix of vivids, crayon, and dye.  We worked on getting the lines for the different types of feather in the right place and making sure the flax in the background overlapped its leaves.  We think we did a pretty awesome job and hope you think so too.  Be sure to check out our artwork in the room 10 folder in the library.
