Suter Art Gallery By Toby

On a sunny Monday morning the happy children of Room 7 sped off to the Suter Art Gallery, which is set in the excellent Queen's Gardens.

After a yummy morning tea we strode off to the Gallery to view he interesting Maori Pottery Models made of smooth clay.

We followed Ester into an art filled Gallery. After introducing the exhibition, Ester let us have a wander round to view the best pottery we liked. Like humans, all the pottery had a neck, or a belly, or legs or arms, also like humans they had different shapes and sizes.

The most exciting moment of our trip was when we strode into the modelling room. First we moulded St Patricks Star. Afterwards we shaped the head and pinched the legs and the arms. Finally we pushed the head on. The hair was slimy like long skinny worms.

What an exciting day.

Toby used paragraphs and descriptive language. He used lots of good words to describe what we did. From Room 7
