Māori@Marshland - Toroa T2

By Bex Osbourn

We have been looking at the significance of the Koru and then relating it to our own whanau.  The students had to complete a Pastel art with dye pieces that showed their understanding of the Koru in Maori culture and then design a Koru air dry clay piece that represents themselves and their whanau.

Cecile Lyon In the kiwi hub we read the legend of 'Maui and the sun'. We imagined we were Maui catching the sun and created these Art works. For Matariki we made kites that were inspired by the book 'The seven kites of Matariki'.

Māori@Marshland - Pukeko

This term Pukeko have been working on their Pepeha. We have created a visual Pepeha incorporates their mountain and river. In our hub we have created two different types. Boyce and Sim created a textured artwork with pastel and dye. Calvert and Smith created a sketch with pastel and dye. Students are at their beginning stages of learning their pepeha. They will continue to learn and practice their Pepeha next term.
