All about Asia

Thursday 30th March - Konnichiwa! Today Room 1 and Room 2 learnt about kimono's.

 First we learnt about what a kimono is and where they come from. A kimono is a type of dress from Japan. They are mainly one colour with some patterns on them.

Miss Botting and Miss Johnston got all of us into groups to work on our own kimono designs.

 Here is one group working very hard on their kimono designs.

 After we had finished our designs, we made a kimono out of newspaper and coloured paper.

 Ethan's lovely kimono design! Ka pai Ethan.

 Lots of concentration going on for the designers.

 The end result - We were very proud of our kimonos. We all worked together responsibly to create them. You can see them up on the walls in Room 1 and Room 2 next week.

Here is Miss Botting going through each of the designs.
