Queens birthday!

The Queen's birthday
The Queen's real birthday is on the 21 first of April, heaps of New Zealanders celebrate the
Queen's birthday on the first Monday of June (That's the sixth of June it is a very special day. On the day
of the Queen's birthday New Zealanders
get the day off school and people usually get the day off work. In Australia the day when they get one day off varies, like in 2016 the date is going to be Monday June the 13th and in 2017 the date is going to be Monday the 12th of June. It's not the same date in every country that means the Queen has her birthday like one after another that would be horrible. NZ celebrates the Queen's birthday because we're part of the commonwealth. For the long weekend we're just going to hang around home and maybe go for a bike ride.

String Art!
This term for art we did String art.

Steps
  1. First we had to chose a template of something
  2. Then Mrs Lindsay printed it out, we than stuck blu tack on the back of the paper.
  3. We all helped by bringing wood in so we could stick the paper on the wood.
  4. Mrs Lindsay put little marks where we had to nail nails into the wood.
  5. Then we had to loop string around and around the nail’s.

This is my finished Art project.











My design was a dog, I thought that I would do a dog because dogs are my favourite animals.
