Year 2 students recently created photographic artworks of images made from bread tags in their Visual Arts class. In connection with their Sharing the Planet Unit of Inquiry, students explored artworks made from reused materials and had fun making art with such a novel material.
At the end of the lesson, bread tags were collected again and will be sent to Aussie Bread Tags for Wheelchairs. This local charity organisation sells the bread tags to Robe business, Transmutations, which uses them to make bowls and bread boards. The money raised from the sale of the bread tags funds wheelchairs for disadvantaged people, primarily in South Africa.
A bowl made from bread tags is located in the St John's Campus School Office as a collection point. We encourage you to donate your used bread tags. Save the planet and support disadvantaged people.
