Have you noticed the new murals 

overlooking the Year 2 playground?

These were developed by the Senior Art group during our targeted learning in term 1. The children began by looking at what Greenhithe means to them. They came up with ideas around the native bush; pohutukawa, kowhai, tui, ferns and flax. 

The students then merged their ideas to form the background and foreground pieces. In groups, they then layered on paint, using a range of processes and techniques. We think the overall look is fantastic and we are very proud.

Many thanks to Barry for materials and setting the murals in place, to Marsha Smith for her expertise and guidance and to all the families that provided paint.

Thank you also to those who helped to complete the murals during the holidays, the Smith family, the Leong family, Sylvia Leadley and my boys.
