Marrickville High School's Archibull Adventure
We are now underway with completing our final Archibull design. The Visual Arts students have voted and the results are in. (Special recognition goes to Tony whose design won!) Our design will be composed of; the process it takes for a cotton plant to grow, how it is harvested, and finally, how it is manufactured into denim and other fabrics. Using the Archibull cow-planning templates, we were paired up to design our section of the bull. So far our Visual Arts class has explored and discussed many big ideas, using them to creatively express their understanding of agriculture and the cotton industry. By researching cotton and its importance in the world, our class has gained an understanding of the significance of farming and sustaining natural resources. It's interesting to see how far we have all grown; from being naive citizens that did not fully grasp the challenges that farmers face, to being assertive young adults that have the insight to understand that clothing a nation is everyone's responsibility. Here are some visuals that showcase our progression thus far:
