Chinese New Year Art

Chinese New Year 14 January this year!
A quick dragon cut out of cardboard, coloured in and crepe paper tail added. Honeycomb added as fire from his mouth and red paper to his head. Add a stick and Happy New Year!

Australia Day


Using the Australia folder as a guide, we drew a picture for each child to colour in about Australia like animals such as sharks, fish, kangeroos, Australian flag, people surfing, map of Australia, Aborigines etc.
For art we made digeridos (sp!) out of old wool holders we got in the resource centre in Castlebar which is well worth joining up to for the paper and recycling materials you can get for art and montessori materials, you just need to be creative in your thinking how to use it!
Painted the wool holder and let dry, put strips of paper on it and some sparkly circles. Painted the kids faces using white paint and sent home a tribe of aborigines!
