Creating our Solar System


We have been learning about the Solar System over the past few weeks. We have started working on a visual art creation of the Solar System. We are working in groups of three - four on each individual planet within the Solar System. We are creating the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Earth, the Moon, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and our dwarf planet Pluto. 

On Friday, we began using newspaper and paste by covering a balloon/planet in our groups, we created one layer. Once we had finished our first layer, we went off and lent a helping hand to other groups in Te Pihinga. We had a super morning exploring and working co-operatively. 

Below are a few images of our Fun Day Friday morning Solar System Space art. Watch this space for our next update on the Te Pihinga Solar System.

Weekends

It isn't just the teachers who come in on the weekends to do things around the school. Check out Connor and his Granddad who came to school on Sunday morning to move the dirt they donated to the school. 




Thanks Kennedy family - we are going to love getting our gardens looking amazing!
