In an effort to extend on this experience as well as the ideas and theories that the tamariki have about Olympus Mons and volcanoes in general, we have started to build another volcano from balloons and paper mache.
First we needed to blow up the balloons, then arrange them into a mountain, before covering the balloons with paper and glue. It was great to see our mountain taking shape. Tamariki were able to share their suggestions for how we should construct our mountain, as well as active parts in its formation. The next steps are to add a few more layers of paper mache, paint it and then watch it come to life!
