Creative 'Mame-me'!!

At the end of Term 2 the Grade 6 students made a 'Mame-me' wearing traditional clothes from many different countries.

 

A 'Mame-me' is a doll which we made by ourselves in Art class.

 

There were a lot of traditional clothes from a lot of different countries.

 

The most popular traditional clothes came from Korea.

 

Every doll was colorful and creative!!
