Last week Room 20 visited Te Tuhi Art Centre. We were very lucky to participate in an Art Workshop "Stories from the Pacific".
We learnt about Pacific Tapa. We learnt how they are made, what symbols are used on them in different Pacific nations and the importance of them in the lives of Pacific people.
Room 20 students needed to think of symbols to use in their art that represented their culture, interests, family and special place. These were used on their own tapa.
It was a great learning experience, especially learning about cultures that are in our community.
