RAWHITI SCHOOL Mural Title: Rising Above Entry Sketch Completed Mural This was a collaborative project undertaken by the Year 7 & 8 art group over Term 1. Our school opened at the beginning of 2016 on our permanent site in North New Brighton, and while we have amazing new buildings and spaces, our grounds are still a work in progress. Staff saw this as, not only a great learning experience but, an opportunity to get the senior students involved in creating a vibrant and inviting environment that the whole school can enjoy. Our design includes elements that reflect our seaside location, the history of three schools merging to become one, our cultural links and our new Rāwhiti School identity. The art group are excited to be able to now see our design come to life, and are looking forward to using the Resene vouchers to purchase paint and get underway with painting. – Helen Parata Click here to view the amazing process to create this mural.
