Te Papa Visit

Yesterday the Senior School visited Te Papa Museum. We went to the European Masters exhibit and studied all the art in preparation for Arts Week. We also went to Blood, Earth, Fire to learn about the history of New Zealand. Then we went to the Treaty of Waitangi and studied some of the history of that to help us with some of our inquiry. Lastly we went to the Brian Brake exhibit to see the whole purpose of his photos. Brian Brake is a New Zealander who is world-famous for his photos.
