Melville Intermediate - Prep 2012 Part One

On Friday Melville Intermediate School had their 2012 PrEP (Primary Enterprise Program) Market Day.   Students from Melville Intermediate had nearly seventy business stalls operating for the evening of Friday 26th October.  We had a huge number of the general public come and visit Melville Intermediate and spend money.  The students did an amazing job on the evening and this series of photographs is the first in the series of highlights.  Photographs taken by Matua Peter on the evening.

This is part two of the explanation of Maori Bone Carving.  As explained in yesterdays video this is a gift that we've been preparing for our friends from Vonslid School in Denmark.   Filmed by Levi on Tuesday 15th May 2012 in the Melville Intermediate School Workshop.

Melville Intermediate - Bone Carving Explanation

Those of you who have been following our page will know that we have been preparing a very special present for the students from Vonslid School in Denmark.  They sent us a wonderful gift of T-Shirts that were related to Handball,  the national sport of Denmark.  In return we thought long and hard about what we could send them.  As Maori culture is very important to our school, Melville Intermediate employs Matua Peter, and one of his specialities is Bone Carving.  We've been working for a week and a half preparing the gift, working through the stages and this video explains the designs we've created and the process that's been gone through.  This is video one of two, filmed by Levi from Room Five on Tuesday 15th May 2012.
