Tombs

They are cranking up what they call the Ballarat 'Winterlude' which looks like ice skating to me. I hope they will have a first aid station somewhere close!

The grade 5s are working on their tombs for the 'Jewel of the Seven Stars'. Below are photos I took this morning.

Yesterday they painted the inside of a photocopy paper box black.

Today they added the image of the 'plough' constellation.( That's the 7 starts in the title)

Then using air drying clay they made their mummies.

The mummies are drying and then they painted their tomb entrance. They also decorated their sarcophagus. ( Paper mâché pencil cases I bought from a craft store)

 Tomorrow they'll add the bandages ( thin masking tape) We will also add a curse. They should look great when they are finished - which should be tomorrow.
