Telling a Story in Clay

Art in Term Four has been all about Clay.  There have been disappointments, such as when our treasured works have cracked, or been broken.  There have been highs when we have felt proud of our finished work, despite the challenges involved in making it.

The following creatures have been inspired by a short artist study of the work of Jenny Miller. examples of the work of Jenny Miller

Each composition is intended to 'Tell a Story', as we thought carefully about the personalities of our creatures and considered whether to pose them in a group or individually...

Locky

Kiwi Volleyball
Ouch my arm i just hit my arm on the floor what! Now i'm out ahhh.
I hit my arm by trying to dive on the ball but I hit the ground too hard and dropped the ball saving the team, more like getting out. One of our games was against  Gracefield they cheated and they got away with it because we didn’t have a person to defend us. Whenever Todd got out Sally Todd's mum,  would make someone else go out.

We didn’t get a placing in our pool, but we had about 3 wins 2 loses and 3 ties.My team had me Liam,Braidyn,Lui,Violet and Mila.We vs the example team and they got one of the rules wrong?. After every game we had a break
where we got to play and have food.
