Tie Dye Day!

Well this afternoon was the moment we've been waiting for! Time to get stuck in and dye our white t-shirts! We learnt how to use rubber bands to gather little 'bunny ears'  in the fabric. We each put about 8 bands in our shirts. Then we got to dunk the shirts into the dye! We had a bucket of green for the Forest, bluey purple for the Ocean and orange for the Volcano. Some of us had a go at stirring the shirts and making sure they were nice and soaked in the dye. We can't wait to see what they look like when we take the bands out, there were lots of great predictions!

Thank you so much to Amy for her help organising the afternoon, and to all the adults who came along and helped the children put the rubber bands on. We couldn't have run the activity without you so we are very appreciative!
