Custom rocks have been popping up in local communities, including at our own school gates. This is a fun, simple idea that can be done easily with children young and old! We are inviting families in our school to create their own rocks and upload a photograph of them to the school website so we can display these creations. Typically people place their rocks around the community for others to see. However, we are suggesting something a little bit different. We invite you to hold on to your rocks and when then time comes for us to come back together in school we will bring our rocks back and look at how we might use them around our campus as a memorial to these times. When this time comes, we will invite suggestions from our community as to how best we might use them!
How to make your rock creation:
- Pick a rock or stone
- Rinse off any mud/muck
- Once dry you can use paint, nail varnish, markers, crayons to customise
- Seal your rock - this prevents washable paints/markers from washing away when put out. You can use PVA glue, clear nail varnish or even clear varish that you may have.
- Most importantly, have fun!
We look forward to seeing your creations!
