Totem pole- Painters

For the last few days Village 22 have been painting their designs on the totem pole and tracing their designs. We have all enjoyed doing this.

Totem Pole Sanding

As soon as village 22 purchased the totem pole they started sanding the pole. After 1 day they purchased masks and sanded safely they used putty to fill holes.

Totem pole-permission

Last week on Monday the project managers Lydia,Hilary,Jacob and Keegan went to Mr Sibsons office to get permission for the totem pole to start construction.The project managers needed to get permission for safety where to put the totem pole and it it could start construction.After talking about all of the hazards Mr Sibson said it is a fabolous idea and Village 22 started construction.

Totem pole-Shoppers

Shoppers-we went to Dulux to get some paint for the pictures that we are going to put on the totem pole. The man who was helping as pick the right type of paint but then he accidentally tipped over a pot of paint.We got 9 pots free and we had to pay for one testpot for $36 Glen donated most of the paint

Shoppers-A group of shoppers went to Bunnings warehouse and got rubber gloves,masking tape and masks and some cement and Rose gave us a discount.

Work Groups

Shoppers- buying equipment needed. The first job was to find where we could buy some poles. Daniel and Ben rang several places and discovered Place Makers and Bunnings had what we wanted. Jin, Gabby and Lydia went with Sue to buy them on Monday at lunchtime. We also go sandpaper and Puty to make the poles ready for painting.
Many people helped fix the holes and sand the poles down.

Totem pole

V22 is making 2 totem poles to represent the cultures in our school . When children start our school from other countries they will see the poles and recognise symbols and pictures from their culture. We want them to feel welcome when they arrive at FOS.We are hoping that it will be finished by the end of the year. That is 4 weeks!
Our first job was to organise ourselves into a work team. We chose 4 project managers. They are Lydia, Hilary, Keegan and Jacob (lying on their side).
They asked us what jobs we wanted then put us into work groups.
