Years 8 & 9

Year 9 Functional Furniture Class

Mr Molineux's Year 9 Functional Furniture class has been learning how to make a coffee table. Using many different materials to create their pieces, students have learned many new skills which have allowed them to create their individual pieces. Students have also been able to burn their own designs onto the coffee table.

Pictured  with their works are Nate Somerville, Sebastian Fidelisi and Deon Fyfe.

Japanese Drumming

On Friday 6th March, students studying Year 8 Japanese had the opportunity to participate in a Taiko (drumming) incursion, taught by Kyomi Sensei. Taiko is a combination of drumming and martial arts. 

Year 8 students learned about the discipline required for drumming, the power of voice and the importance of playing in unison to create a powerful composition. At the end of each session the group was able to create a piece of music replicating the sounds of a thunderstorm.
