Art

Grade 5/6 students have been busy in the Art Room this term learning about Graffiti. We have looked at many different styles, the history and the always evolving trends in street art. Students have created mini fenced out of icy-pole sticks and used paint pens to write their name. Here are some of 5/6Bs finished pieces. 

Some closeups from other students across the 5/6 cohort. Well done everyone! They look FANTASTIC!!
