World of Wearable Arts 2024

East Taieri World of Wearable Arts Show

The key understandings of the Inquiry were:

  • Materials have different properties that determine how we use them.
  • Design thinking follows a specific process

Our students have worked in collaborative groups to design, plan and create their unique wearable art pieces. 

The piece was entered in one of the following categories:

  • Paper Bag Princes and Princesses – Paper/Cardboard Products
  • Plastic Fantastic – Plastics
  • Our Backyard – Natural Products
  • Awesome Accessories – Hats, Bags, Masks
  • Junkyard – Metals, Wood, Tinfoil Products, Recycled Technology
  • Fabulous Fabrics – Materials

In Week 10, designs were shared as part of our livestreamed show! Each section was judged by our guest judge – Grace Ockwell who works as a In-House Legal Counsel at Te Wananga o Aotearoa, which is an Education company.  She has entered the Wellington WOW awards and was a finalist three times.  We were very appreciative of her volunteering her expertise to judge our East Taieri WOW Awards.
