Traditional African mud art refers to Bogolanfini which is the mud cloth. Korhogo cloth is printing animals, we did turtles and Bombola cloth is a pattern theme. The children did a mixture of both. First the cloth was painted brown to resemble the mud and then they used different paints with the both the front and the back of a paint brush to carve out their art work. The children have done really well creating their atsese art work.

Over the last few weeks we have been looking at the lifecycle of a caterpillars. We were lucky enough to get our own caterpillar eggs. We have loved looking at them and watching them develop and evolve from tiny eggs into caterpillars. Currently our caterpillars are hibernating in their chrysalis’ and we are eagerly awaiting on them the hatch. 🥚 🐛 🦋
