art that talks

Me & mackenzie choose pointillism because we thought it would be more challenging and more effective for our design.

In our artwork we have put the three kahikatea trees. The first tree stands for staff  the second tree stands for students and the third one stands for community.

We choose to put the Kahikatea trees because they stand tall,their roots intertwine with each other and they hold each other up even in difficult situations.

The children represent tuakana teina meaning older one teaching the younger one and younger one teaching the older one. We have put different skin coloures on them meaning a mix of different cultures.

The kite stands for rising up to the challenge that every person finds their self stuck in everyday. What I am kind of saying is you have to fail to succeed.

The rubbish bins represent rise because we care for our environment by picking up our own waste and putting it in the correct bin.

orange to white

  A seagull turned bright orange after falling into chicken tikka masala curry.

the bird was rescued by workers at the site in Wales. Staff at the hospital used dish liquid to remove the bright orange from the seagull’s feathers. They returned him to its original white color but have not been able to wash away the smell of curry.

persuasive letter

Dear mum
You know we could help all the poor and homeless dogs and puppies at SPCA right?

Just one can of dog food is $1.79 so if you spend 100 dollars on dog food that would be 179 cans of dog food.
There are 4 dogs and some puppies coming in the next month in need at the SPCA.

Beautiful soldier

                                                          Crying battlefields
                                                    Bombs explode in the distance
                                                             The battle goes on

my hiding spot

 My hiding spot


“I’m ready! Come and find me.”
Mums room smells like the body-shop.
Haka will never find me in this dark room.

Be very careful that your feet aren't sticking out. The floor feels like a cat's back.
Haka will probably be searching in the bush by the tramp and in the rumpus room.

I must not sneeze or move when Haka comes tip toeing in. I can hear tip  toe tip toe the door slowly opens. Haka quietly says  come out come out wherever you are.
I stay dumb and still but a BIG sneeze erupted out AAA ACHOO!

Haka turns around. I stay still as a stick then Haka slowly looks under the cot.  “Found you! ” Haka yells.
