Milestones at Marlborough | An Art Show and Reflection

What a wonderful celebration we had for Marlborough's 40th Anniversary! Thank you to all those people involved in organising the day and to those who were able to come down and join in the celebrations.

I am so proud of our students and all the hard work they have put in to their creative projects for display in our Art Gallery. Scroll down to see some photos of the work that was on display.

Each class made a collaborative canvas artwork which was up for auction on the day. Students worked with their class teacher and support staff to create an unique piece of art, There was some serious bidding going on on Sunday and all canvases sold! Congratulations to our winning bidders who will now be hanging these masterpieces up on their walls.

And here is a wrap-up of the individual artworks that were on display by each grade. These were completed during their weekly Visual Arts lessons.

 

What amazing talents we have at Marlborough Primary School - congratulations to each and every student and I keep creating! Remember, there are no mistakes in Art!!

Grades 1-5 ~ More Britto-inspired masterpieces

Doesn't the office area look so bright and colourful with all this amazing work by our students from Grades 1-5??? WOW!! Our Foundation students' work is on display in the Art Room windows and our Grade 6 students are carefully working away on their 3D Britto-inspired pieces in readiness for our Art Show in October.

A very big thank you to Ada (Grade 1) and her family for lending us some of their Romero Britto collectables from their home! Our students loved seeing Britto's style come to life in these cute soft toys and ceramic homewares.

First delivery of stars!

I have just delivered our first box of stars for the One Million Stars Project and the staff at Wyreena Community Centre were thrilled! We managed to weave 300 stars already and the box is still filling up.

Rather than throw away old brochures, magazines, paper offcuts and scrapbooking paper strips - we have turned them into beautiful pieces of art and all for a wonderful cause!

Thank you to everyone who has contributed so far.
