ERUPTING VOLCANOES By Katherine Year 4 volcano project The year 4s have been making volcanoes for their year 4 projects. All their volcanoes seem to be always erupting with yellow and red boiling magma. Wonderful!! Everyone would say whenever they see them outside their classroom above their lockers. The year 4 students are very proud of their work because their teachers are satisfied by their work. All the volcanoes were fantastic. All of them showed the volcano erupting and they also show how a volcano really looks like. All their work was marvelous. People who pass by would say “ wow nice work over there.” “It’s nice to hear people say that” a year 4 student told us.
GIS PICASSOS, EXPOSED!
What’s the scoop on the art galleries? How did the masterpieces manage to exist in this world? Well first, you’ll need canvas and paint. Then you’ll need the master of the creation. THE PICASSOS. Here’s the inside scoop of the latest, and old but cool artworks. Next to the primary cafeteria, is a huge, colourful mural, representing International week, and the Culture of the World. Artists Stefano Ang, and Jane Tan were usually caught painting and working away, throughout 2 years back in G.I.S. The smell of oil paints and a newly bought art canvas, filled the corridors with a strange odour, making the children wonder, What are they doing? Problem solved, they had been working on a mural. The mural had been painted yellow (background) and covered with painted over figures, such as a totem pole. Cardboard away! Currently, the new building has been having a ‘lump’ of cardboard, which is right-now, a giant, extravagant, cardboard volcano! The volcano hasn’t erupted yet, though, hundreds of tiny, wired red mannequins have been spotted dangling over the mouth the volcano, and over the miniature, detached-from-the-rest, plaster of Paris volcanoes. Though people think of them to be ‘dead’, Chinese New Year decorations propped on the wall behind, many complaints from the Chinese mothers, saying that it is bad luck, and one of the many comments being, “It looks like all ‘souls day’” Last year, this school held an artwork auction, featuring many artworks, and photographs, being displayed for auction. The prices of these fantastic artworks, range from RM 10 to RM 100. There is still more artworks to be awaiting to be displayed, so watch out for them, next month… By Bin Ling
