Last week our St Dominic the Adventure Years 3 and 4 students participated in creating artworks using natural materials. The inspiration for the session was based on the artwork by sculptor and photographer, Andy Goldsworthy. Mr Walker led this engaging session with the support of some Year 10 students, various teachers across the campuses and learning support staff.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are some reflections from our Year 3 and Year 4 Adventurers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I liked building with sticks because it was interesting and fun. We got to see how the sticks connected to make things like a campfire.<\/p>Eilbron Jajoo

I worked with Angela and Claire to make a wreath from autumn leaves and sticks. It was fun collecting the materials and making the artwork together from natural materials.<\/p>April Serna

I thought this activity was fun because we got to make our own artwork as a group. We worked together to decide who did different things and then we made an artwork together.<\/p>Aria Leung

I liked making a sculpture with my group. We made a spiral with the sticks and we made fireworks with the leaves. We were happy with the way it turned out because it looked good and I enjoyed working with different people.<\/p>Vijayan Jayaseelan

My favourite part was making different mazes with the sticks we came up with lots of different designs which were easier and harder.<\/p>Sofia Brodowska-Nidelkos

I really enjoyed scavenging for natural resources and thinking about how we were going to use them in our artworks.<\/p>Deon Aldridge Chow

It was a lot of fun making a wreath using sticks with my friends.<\/p>Lam Phan

My group and I made a spiral using sticks and leaves as it made us think of never-ending life.<\/p>William Kategiannis

I really enjoyed making different designs with my group. It made me realise that there are a lot more things to do than just staying indoors.<\/p>Esther Chiew
Year 4<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

I really enjoyed making leaf art because there were a lot of variations of leaves to make something creative and interesting.\u00a0<\/p>Aiden Park (Year 4)<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
