Hairy Maclary Exhibition!

At the beginning of the term the junior syndicate visited the Hairy Maclary exhibition at The Dowse Art Museum. We had a fantastic time! We learnt a lot about Lynley Dodd and how she created the different characters in her stories. Here are some photos of us having a look at the exhibition.






We listened really carefully to how Lynley Dodd formed her characters and where she found the inspiration for her stories, which we found really interesting!




             Look at us pulling our scariest Scar Face Claw face!


The Dowse Art Museum also had a special workshop where we were able to make our own prints. We were asked to design a creative, fictional character! First we had to draw our creative monster and then we had to give it a name. We were clever and came up with some wonderful and creative designs. Here are some photos of us hard at work...
