The theme for Sculpture in the School 2015 is taken from the Education Week theme "Celebrating Local Heroes"
Each class or year group used their imagination and creative talents to produce the beautiful, unique sculptures you see below. Some children celebrated Indigenous heroes, some honoured heroes who fought in wars, others chose heroes within their families. Local flora and fauna were recognised as heroes and some acknowledged that we are all heroes.
Take a look, they are amazing!
Aren't these poppies stunning! I couldn't stop photographing them!
Beautiful large wildflowers catching the sun.
Even the local kookaburra came to view the sculptures.
This circular sculpture is interactive because year 6 have created beautiful poems in amongst the small poppies that can be removed and read by the audience as well as small notes written on the petals.
A celebration of local Indigenous heroes.
Are you a superhero too?
Kindergarten CD zoo animals and pet rock heroes
Heroes are the people who work towards reconciliation. The black board represents Aboriginal Australia, the white rope symbolises white settlement and the cord spilling out of the bottles represents reconciliation.
Interactive memory boxes. When opened they reveal images and momentos of people from our past who have done things we are proud of and made a difference in our lives.
