Favona Primary School's Library Displays

I will be placing a collection of the wonderful artwork/ bulletin board library displays that our students and teachers have created on this part of the blog. Also there will be some creativity from the Library Team as well. This collection has taken many years.  Hope you enjoy the creativity of what some of the students/teachers have shown.

 3D Library Display  -- The Knowledge Tree
Using book covers, I laminated these first before placing on wall. I used brown paper for tree then cut up bits of brown paper and pasted on top of trunk of tree to make it look 3D. I used coloured card and cut out the shapes to create the leaves.
This display is versatile because you could use this for all seasons and change the leaves, to blossoms etc.

Maori Language Week Display 2013

'How well can you say our Maori place names?

Room E1 created this wonderful display.

New Signage -- Term 4 - 2013

I created new signage by printing these on card then laminating and cutting the letters out separately. The new signage has brightened up the Library Environment.



SPRING DISPLAY

August 2014.

I created these blossoms from pink crepe paper. The blossoms did take ages to make but the students did like them. Well worth doing. It really brightens up the library environment. Printed off, cut out and laminated some Tui birds and made the baby birds out of black cartridge paper which I also laminated, so too were the bees. The birds nest is made out of brown paper. I did kept the leaves when I did the autumn scene, so I can re-use these.

New Signage -- Term 3 - 2014

I created these from Journal Boxes, printed the covers on A4 labels then laminated over for sturdiness. 

These have been a hit with the students, items go out constantly from these boxes and it has also freed up more space on the shelf.

ANZAC 2015

Area F created these lovely poppy paintings.
