What have you done today to make you feel proud?

That’s the question I posed to Crew on Friday afternoon (and no, I didn’t sing it ‘Miranda’ style!)

Apart from a few exceptions – for instance, Brendan being proud of scoring a goal with his left foot and Aden being proud of exceeding his MEG in his latest Math’s assessment – Crew were mostly proud of their completed propaganda posters.

And so they should be!  Take a look at the craftsmanship and quality on display here:

Year 8 have been working on these posters as their final product for their current HUMS expedition, ‘Making Your Mind Up.’  The aim of the poster is to highlight how we can avoid being manipulated by all the information we’re bombarded with everyday, whether that’s from the media or from posts shared on social networking sites.

Noah said that he was really proud of the hard work he’d put into his poster to have it completed on time, especially as he’d missed a couple of the planning lessons because he was taking part in a dancing competition.

Tom said he was proud of his work because he doesn’t really like art but feels he has produced a quality poster (I agree!) He persevered when he faced problems, particularly when it came to the detailing on his social network logos.

Mackenzie, Bryn and Thomas all said that they were proud of their posters because they listened to and acted on feedback from their peers to improve their first drafts.

Amazing work, Crew Finch! I’m particularly proud of the craftsmanship and quality evident in all your work and can’t wait to see them on display.You have every right to be proud of yourselves and the progress you’re making across all subjects.
