My Sign/Tribute Art

Recently my class has been working on signs of old Aotearoa history around were we live.  Me and my friend Kale´a are in a group on a famous horse and his owner.  the name of our sign is Tore te A-Hoiho-John.  

We started by painting the base blue.  That was our base colour.  Then, while I was gone Kale´a had to work on the project alone. She made the grass alone, she thinks that it's to long.  I think it's perfect.  In the days after that (Mainly Yesterday) we added in the ocean, a GIANT rugby ball, a rugby goal that's smaller than the ball, the clouds and sun, a title, and last but certainly not least, The horse himself.  We've only done the out line.

The only reason were not finished is because, Kale´a started to draw the horses leg, but I pointed out it was to long.  Me and Kale´a burst into hysterical giggles.  We went outside to paint over it, but had to do it 3 times for it not to show.  Only because Kale´a did it in vivid.  When it was finally gone Kale´a painted the Ocean while I did white wash.  Then I drew the Rugby ball and we painted it.  The post was simple so I just did 3 lines, and the clouds are done too.  Me and Kale´a also found the perfect orangey-beige colour for the sun.

I Just painted the horse a pale beige with a blue mane and black saddle.  The teacher told us we have to make it paler, the beige, though.  

Thank you for reading about my week, Charlotte.

CAMP!!

In week 7 I went to yr 6 camp.  First, we went up, to run the confidence course.  Apparently, we were the fastest group that the teachers had ever made do that.  We also went on a hike every day,  so we got really fit.  The biggest walk, was up Panekiri Bluff.  YIKES!  In the afternoon, we went kayaking if we had enough time.  We always did, so we went every day.  Then we headed home, in the fanciest bus ever!

Watch the slide to find out more.
Bye!!
