The Robin Hood Owls - finished...

May I present to you the first of the Robin Hood Owls.  He is standing very proud waiting to greet people as they come into our school office.

 

He has been inspired by "Gazza", the hand-reared barn owl at Lotherton Hall.

All the children in school made a pom-pom on March 1st 2013 that has gone to make both owls (the other to follow).

The body is made from wire and paper mached over by the Artclub.  When this had dried, they painted the owl white.

The children in the Artclub then advised which pom-poms looked good next to eachother, taking colour and texture into consideration.

Shortly, I will put the making of the owls on to the blog so you can see how they have been made.
