Brunner Mine Site Visit

On Monday the 18th of March 2019 we went on a school trip to  the Brunnertown Mine.

When we got to the mine we did some activities where we split up into groups. For one activity we had to take photos like what happened in the book "The Mine's Afire" which we are reading in class.  When we went with the other teacher we went for a walk on the track around the mine site. We noticed some of the mine entrances, the coke ovens, the memorial for the Brunner Mine Disaster and the brickworks.  

Here is a photo of us at the mine site.

Visual Art

This week we have been doing our art. For art we designed our own avatar that looks like us. We then drew it on a big piece of paper.  After we drew it on the paper we covered the pencil in vivid. Then we rubbed the pencil out. Finally we painted it. I like my art because I think I did a good job of it here is my art.
