Community Cloth

Today the Year 4 classes finished their piece for the school community cloth.  First we had to draw our Kiwiana/NZ symbol with pencil and paper.  Once we had practised a number of times and perfected our drawing we were allowed to engrave the drawing onto a meat tray.  This was our print tile.  We then had to choose the colour for our print and how we were going to set it out and print it onto our square.  Once these were dry we chose a contrasting colour and painted around the outside of the cloth.  Vivid was added as the finishing touch to frame the print.  We are really looking forward to seeing the cloth all sewn together and displayed in the school.
Here are a few of our finished prints.
