Dear Parents and Friends,
We have had a wonderful week exploring the way colours move
and mix together. We did some investigations into mixing colours and exploring
some Aboriginal art, we spent some time designing tree art and our week
culminated in our trip to the Art Gallery on Thursday.
The boys did a fantastic job walking together to the Art
Gallery. We were really proud of the way they kept going and kept alert,
keeping together as a group and following our instructions. We had a very
knowledgeable guide, Brian who shared some portraiture, some traditional
Aboriginal art and some more contemporary Aboriginal art and sculpture.
The
children were fascinated with what they saw. They enjoyed observing colourful
tapestries, brightly hand painted Turkish tiles and even saris from Indonesia.
Our lunch in the Botanical Gardens was a welcome break where we enjoyed
specially packed picnic bags filled with delectable lunch.
A big thank you to our parent helpers, Marina, Adrian and
Gordon for their wonderful assistance.
Kind Regards,
Pip, Emma, Ty and Rosalie
