Things that are special about St. Albans School

Miss Falkner sent us out with cameras to capture photos of special things about St. Albans School. It was interesting to see that some groups captured the same things!

Maiya and Arihia:

 The Oak Tree, the symbol of our school.

 The totem poles by the sandpit.

The mosaics outside the hall, created by students.

Caitlin and Jordyn:

 The house shield.

The heart of achievement board.

Quail Island photos from Henry

Henry has made the mushroom stand out by making sure it is in focus and the background is out of focus.

Awesome texture!

Love this perspective.

Henry has made this picture look interesting by having the sky take up most of the picture.

Check out how Henry has captured the movement of the girl in front, making it an interesting photo to look at.

The texture and colour of the grass in this photo make it effective.

This photo almost looks like a painting, with the blurred colours and the sunlight streaming through it.
