Mead Room




Dear Mead Room families and friends,

This week the Mead Room discovered watercolour painting.
We have been exploring technique and style using beautiful water colour paints.
The children have tried different brushes and brush strokes and observed changes when testing how much water and paint to use.

Doane – The colour, the colour! I like the colour, orange and purple
Stephen – Lines! And bop, bop, bops (using the paint brush to create spots)
Elle – Water, colour, water, colour – makes watercolour!

We will continue to experiment with a rich and diverse mixture of art mediums—providing time and opportunity to experiment and investigate.
 
Grandies Day is fast approaching – Wednesday 26th March.  We have placed two invitations in your child's locker to invite their special guests.  If you need more Jeanine has some more invitations in reception.  A small request - we will need one or two parent helpers on the day from approximately 8:30am until 12 noon, if you're free…..
 
Have a wonderful weekend!

from Melissa and Sarah
