Burnside's Pop Up Penguin

Starting the feathers for Mihi’s korowai so that all children and staff at Burnside Primary are represented when we send Mihi off into the big wide world. #popuppenguin ⁦@wildinart⁩ ⁦@HarcourtsNZ⁩ #burnsideprimary #chch

Finer details going on Mihi the hoiho today. It’s all starting to come together. #popuppenguin ⁦@wildinart⁩ ⁦@HarcourtsNZ⁩ #burnsideprimary #chch

Loving the focus and care of today’s artists as Mihi our hoiho comes to life to represent our kura. Looking more and more like a Burnside Shining Star. #popuppenguin @wildinart @HarcourtsNZ #burnsideprimary #chch

Artists at work! Great to see our design beginning to come to life. #popuppenguin ⁦@wildinart⁩ ⁦@HarcourtsNZ⁩ #burnsideprimary #chch

Piwakawaka Tui (yr0-2)are working on their final designs with oracy alongside to explain the design elements special to us. Our native garden grows up the penguin to all the creatures we look after. #oracynz ⁦@Wild_in_Art⁩ ⁦@HarcourtsNZ⁩ #popuppenguin #burnsideprimary

We have the Christchurch Symphony Orchestra at our school this week. Someone is keen to join in and is practicing hard. Will he be concert ready on Friday? @wildinart @HarcourtsNZ #AntarcticCity #popuppenguins #christchurch #BurnisdePrimarySchool #oracynz

Someone was ready for action at our Treemendous Event over the weekend. Hopefully he was a helpful contributor. @Wild_in_Art @HarcourtsNZ #AntarcticCity #popuppenguins #christchurch #BurnsidePrimarySchool #oracynz #MazdaFoundation #TREEmendous

An animal creature has left footsteps around our school. Where do they lead and what is it? Who is in the window? Igniting interest and talk in our penguin. @Wild_in_Art @HarcourtsNZ #AntarticCity #popuppenguins #christchurch #BurnsidePrimarySchool #oracynz

The grand unveiling of our Pop Up Penguin with Student Councillors Jireh, Sadie and Nixon. It's still underwraps to everyone else though! @Wild_in_Art @HarcourtsNZ #AntarcticCity #popuppenguins #christchurch #BurnsidePrimarySchool #OracyNZ
