Perspective Art

September 4, 2016 Learning to put depth into art work and creating the illusion of objects disappearing into the distant horizon is not an easy task! However, as you can see from these slides Ruma Tahi students are really getting the idea well. Check back in a few days to view some of the completed artwork.

5+ a Day

3 March 2016

Fresh fruit and vegetables were the name of the game at Kaniere on Monday morning as we celebrated healthy eating and 5+ a day. After getting together in house groups for some fun games everyone loaded up their kebab sticks with their own personal selection of goodies.

Tom gave his selection the thumbs up!

Georgia's already got her eye on those yummy strawberries.

 Krista's having fun . . . but as for Mikayla?

Lots of healthy eating in Ruma Tāhi.

Jimmy is keen for a few more bits.
