The grade nine art class this semester created some wonderful marionette puppets using wire, paper and paste. The project, used old newspapers from the Opasquia Times, and showed the creativity of the students.
“It was wonderful to see the students collaborating, to develop thematic ideas and help each other,” Visual Arts Specialist Pegi McGillivray commented on the student’s work.
The students not only created the marionettes, but also work to create displays for them. The work was completed prior to the June band concert held at MBCI.
“Students created backdrops in the theme of their puppets, Thank you to my students for showing so much enthusiasm and dedication,’ McGillivray commented, adding, “I had a great time working with you. Happy summer and see you in September.”
