CAMELLIA ART

Rimer works on his camellia art.

Emily, Shannon and Kia shape and colour their pictures.

Tyler - nearly finished!

The local Camellia Society hold an annual camellia show in the Waikanae Memorial Hall.  We contribute art to help decorate the hall and there is lots of great art submitted by children from local schools - including Room 6.  We looked at real camellias to learn about the shape, colour and structure, before drawing them.  We discovered they can be red, pink, white, or a combination of those colours.  Some have little, bright yellow, heart shaped stamens while others have petals that flop over and covers them.

The show will be on August the 22nd August for all those who want to see the children's original art works and our class Camellia Banner.
