SCAPE Public Art & Tūranga Visits

Charlotte Cottrell —

This term all Tāhuhu classes have been visiting Tūranga - our central library - designed by the same architects as our kura and the SCAPE public art sculptures.

Ākonga and kaiako walked into the city (3 km) and visited one of the SCAPE art installations and then created art inspired by the sculpture with Sarah Ackerly, the SCAPE Art Educator.

We also visited Tūranga finding all the different opportunities that there are available to all Christchurch residents, and most of it for free. New library cards were signed up for and books were issued. We even had time in between for lunch and a play at Margaret Mahy playground.
