And so it begins..... Art Project Kowhaiwhai

The school this term has been learning about the history of our rohe (area). They have learnt about Moehuri the chief who followed the Mango-nui into our harbour to learning about what it was like for our grandparents when they were young. Using this knowledge a team of senior students are working with Theresa Reihana and Kim Subritzky to design a kowhaiwhai pattern that explains who we are. This pattern will become our kowhaiwhai and will be wrapped around the entrance to our tari (office) during the third term. This will be our art project for the third term.
