Looking Back to Look Forward - Christchurch Heritage Buildings

We have been working hard to produce charcoal drawings of the many heritage buildings we have in our city. 

Some of the buildings we have been drawing have now been demolished due to earthquake damage. We have been discussing why many people want to keep these buildings and what they represent in our wider community. 

We used grids to help us draw the buildings we each chose. This was very challenging for some, but so far we have had results that we are proud of. The parents that came to our 3-way conferences were very impressed and could recognise many of the buildings. We look forward to sharing the finished works in a gallery in our school office.
