Maori Digital Art

Last week in room 4 we did some Maori art on the laptop and made it into something like this. The topic that we had to do was 'The Lost Tanewha'.
We had to use Maori things but not pictures plus we had to have a Tanewha in it. As you can see, the person that did this picture put in two tanewha. 
As the days went by, peoples' art started coming to meet the criteria we were given. 

Here are some of them. 


This one is different it has got a British flag and a boat the boats name is called the HMS Victory. Also as you can see there is a Maori flag, a mere (club) and tiha (spear) and a meeting house, also a waka and a tanewha . 





This one has a plane, a meeting house, two tanewha and a lizard and a warrier. 

I think we all did a great job and we met the criteria. 
                                                                                                                                                                                                  

Cleo and the rabbit

Today we had a death at Poukawa School. An innocent baby rabbit was foolish enough to be spotted by a ferocious predator - Cleo the school cat.

As I was walking to my class room I noticed Cleo running down the hall way with something in his mouth. When I looked closely I saw it was a baby rabbit. As I got nearer Cleo dropped it on the ground and I picked it up.

It was still alive, but only just.

As I held the rabbit it died.

I felt really sad.

Cleo can be cute but he can be a killer!
