Introduction

i chose to do a kiwi as a mascot for new zealand because it represents new zealand as new zealand's national bird this is how you make a paper mache kiwi.

• Lots of news paper
• Thin Cardboard
• Masking Tape
• Googly eyes
• Pva Glue

How to Make A Paper Mache kiwi

• Blow up two balloons one smaller than the other for a head and a body.

• cover the balloons in glue one at a time then put ripped up newspaper strips on the balloon and do four layers of the whole balloon (both the balloons).

• Put the head and the body together by putting small but long strips on the head and the body but make sure it tucked right in the gap so it is not going straight.

• Cut a piece of thin cardboard not to big so you  can put you beak on then wrap the whole piece of cardboard with masking tape then tape it to the kiwi then paper mache on the tape that is on the kiwi head and also paper mache the beak.
• Next you paint it the best colour for it are:brown for the body and head and yellow and orange mixed together for the beak.

• put your googly eyes on your above the beak, glue them on with the pva glue.

• Go outside before you do this part, now you feather you need glue and feathers ( lots of both)  mixed together  get handfuls of feathers and glue and stick it on the kiwi when covered the whole kiwi leave it to dry.

Calendar Art

My koru art represents my family. My Grandma is yellow and gold. Grandad is dark blue and turquoise. Mum is yellow and orange. Jorgia is pink and purple. Dad is green and dark green. I am dark blue and light blue. I did rainbow colors as my back ground because it is pretty  because the colours of the rainbow  is most loved in my family.

Im most proud of my whole Calendar Art because it took a long time to do it. What was hard was the background. It was hard because the koru were in the way of some of the lines. I had to figure out where the lines went and what colour went there. I like the rainbow background the most because it looks pretty and goes with it.
