Seed2Table Art


If you have been into the hall lately I am sure you have noticed the incredible food mural art above the kitchen that Maddie, Mayan and Ruby thoroughly enjoyed creating with Tina last year. As two thirds of the group moved on to intermediate Ruby was desperate to find a new team to work with and keen for a new challenge. She noticed the art needed a heading above it clearly outlining the Seed 2 Table program. Ruby being Ruby has got herself a new team of art lovers and is using many of the skills she learned with Tina to design and create a heading to fit this spot. She will keep you posted on the process she is learning and hopefully persuade you to come along to the unveiling

CO2 Planes?


You might remember the fantastic CO2 cars from last year. If you blinked you would surely miss them for how quickly they were moving. Well this got a group of boys in our class thinking about seeing these cars fly. First of all they thought about ramps but the boys have begun designing a whole new plan. I wonder if you can figure it out from the picture? Don't worry though, The boys will keep you updated on their plans as they develop

Agent Pisstle

Martin and Aedan have put together an incredible trailer to promote an upcoming movie we are all looking forward to watching. The boys showed the trailer at this afternoon's senior assembly and not surprisingly it got a fantastic response...only two weeks to wait until the real thing! I don't know if I can hold on...

Photography Workshop

A few weeks ago we had a great time with Jen's Dad Ian learning about how to take better photographs. We have put together a presentation that outlines some of the tips Ian shared with us and that we have been using the last few weeks. It really made us think about the background and light and we certainly look forward to taking more fantastic photos in the future and we hope you can use some of these tips to help you as well.
