INTERACTIVE ARTWORK

AT WARRNAMBOOL PRIMARY SCHOOL

Back in 2018, I was asked to produce a mural project including all 3 Prep classes based on the children’s book titled:Molly The Grey Kangaroo and the Bush Clean-Up Crew.This book has a great message about the effect our rubbish has on the animals and the environment when we don’t put our rubbish in the bin. Firstly I read the book to all three Prep classes and had the children draw their favourite scenario from the book.On my next visit I then involved the first Prep class in painting the background of the Mural.

COLLECTING

The second Prep class collected natural materials, such as bark, leaves, sticks and grass to glue onto the board.

ADDING SOME CREATIVENESS

The third Prep class I had kept and laminated all of their animal characters they had drawn from the book, so they could be an interactive part of the mural. As I had screwed in small cup holders into the Mural board so the children could hang the characters on the hooks during recess and lunch times and create their own scenarios.
