Art Gallery And Museum Trip

On Wednesday the class and I went on a trip to the art gallery and the museum we went to the art gallery first we learnt about the Maori chiefs that were sketched in the 1800s. We did some art we made our own waka hui  - the box the chief would hang from rafters to keep his hui feathers safe. Stalks of toi toi are helped to make a type of maori art which was one of the things that saw. The museum we learnt about the sun did you know that the sun is filled with a type of gas and it is going to explode in billions of years. Then we went to the solar system area I personally liked the thing that shows you how long it would take you to get to the moon running and the virtual reality headset as well then we went to a classroom in the museum and made solar powered cars. The one that our group made was called Jimmy the Jimster.

This is me waiting in line for the Virtual reality headset 

It took me 1525 days to get to the moon 

This is the solar powered car that our group made.

Thank you Keahn.

Here is my koru art based on the work of Raewyn Harris, a New Zealand artist.

In writing I have used a poem by James K. Baxter as a starting point to write my own holiday poem. I hope you like it.

The lake was usual enough;

It had calm cool water, cars, people, wet towels and even a kayak.

My  Aunty, Mum and I did what swimmers  do -
Swimming, eating, running, diving, and bombing

Doing nothing important.
