Making Poi with Mrs Hohaia

On Friday we made poi with Mrs Hohaia.  We had to plait the handle first and then make the round part.  It was tricky so we worked with a buddy.

Weaving for the Art Exhibition

The Art Exhibition opens Monday 3 October.  Don't our pieces of weaving look spectacular!

A practise at weaving - remembering to go 'in and out'

Another practise at going 'over and under'

We had to pull out some pieces of hessian to weave the pieces of flax through

We had to concentrate really hard and be patient!

One of the first completed pieces

Hanging in the classroom.  Some students said it felt like being in a forest!
