Our Wearable Art



Our class went to visit the Wearable Arts Museum. By cars we saw lots of weird costumes from 1 to 25. We sat on the seats. On the seats there where pieces of paper that had infermation that told us about the costumes. Some costumes where made of wood my favourite costume was the Ring Mistress (Cadey). My favourite was the Cartoon Guy (Tia) . After that we went into a glow room to watch a movie about the costumes.

Next we went to Nikau Gardens and looked at the native plants. Mrs Cowley gave us some cameras so we could take photos of the plants.( josh) My favourite was the pohutakawa . My favourite tree was the kowhai tree (Taine).

When we came back we started to think of ideas to dress up Susie. We drew flax, manaka flowers, pohutakwa and tree ferns in groups of three and then we dressed Susie up with them.

Now Susie is a Wearable Art model who just missed out going to the WOW awards!

  1. Hello Room Ten!!

    I wish I had been there for all this excitement - lots of fun visits by the sounds of it, and now you have some wonderful art as a result?

    Did anybody see the horse costume that won at the WOW awards?
