Lest We Forget...

We had our first meeting of Art Club this week and to commemorate ANZAC Day we created some portraits of soldiers.

Zak in Room 1 had bought in some photographs of a relative who fought in World War One to show his class, and he kindly let us look at these to help us draw the uniforms.  

We talked about how these soldiers might feel about going to war - anxious, frightened, proud, excited - and tried to capture these emotions in our paintings.

Here are our soldiers...  















They are hanging in the School Library as part of  Margrette's wonderful ANZAC display.
