Students from Aspect Riverina, Wagga Campus visited Unique State over three weeks to create artworks looking at the region’s tiniest living creatures – insects. Students from Kindergarten, Stages 1, 2 and 3 drew butterflies, bees, beetles, mosquitos, dragonflies and grasshoppers, then exposed their drawings onto colourful sun-printed backgrounds. Everyone loved participating and artists added bright colours and details when the artwork dried. They might be small, but they are mighty and are just as precious to the ecosystem!
