Makerspace Creations Term 4 2020

September 8th, 2020
8th September, 2020

It is getting closer to the end of the term, and we have had some great activities in the Makerspace. Firstly, the term started off with the girls furiously painting and decorating A3 peices of paper for the “Wings Mural” that was put up during week 5. There was approximately 200 feathers created for the mural, and since it has been up a lot of fun for the students taking photos.

We went on to make crepe paper flowers and decorated a jar with decoupage to put them in.

The next activity was origami stars and then we had a spaghetti challenge.

Further into the Term we celebrated Father’s day by making dad a tie bookmark.

Now onto sewing week, with the students keen to learn the sewing machine. They are making scrunchies at the moment.

As Sisters We Soar

During term three the Makerspace and Cre8 Lab students spent the first 4 weeks creating feathers for our wings mural. Each feather was painted in shades of blue and white, cut out in three different sizes and shapes, and then decorated with a white chalk design to add texture, variety and individuality to each feather.

During week 5 all the feathers were collected and then the library staff glued each feather into place on a pair of very large wing shapes. The wing shapes were made out of coreflute materal and then the wings were attached to a black wall using velcro tape.

There are approximately 200 feathers used to complete the wings, and the wing span is 4 metres. Below are a collection of images of the process from start to finish.

All our middle school students are eagerly awaiting the McAuley Makerspace being reopened in Term 3. Seeing that this term has been affected with Learning@Home and only having 4 weeks of on campus learning with restrictions, we are expecting the Makerspace will be a popular space to be. Watch the presentation to see the activities that are organised for the term.
