Bushfires

As part of their unit on natural disasters, students in grades 5 and 6 learned about the Black Saturday bushfires, and the devastating affect these fires had on several towns in Victoria in 2009. Students created these profoundly moving landscapes using a combination of paint, charcoal, chalk pastels and oil pastels. An excellent use of colour, light and shadow to evoke mixed feelings in these pieces. Well done grade 5 and 6!
