Rouge Valley's 25th Anniversary - Tile Mosaic

We are celebrating Rouge Valley's 25th Anniversary.

As part of the celebration, each student made a painting on a ceramic tile. The theme for the artwork was wildlife from Rouge Park. For inspiration, students used their experiences from our walks in the Rouge, supplemented by researching online.

The tile mosaic was planned and organized by Ms. Calma.

Mr. Cooke helped with the assembly and mounting.

Here is the finished product that is proudly on display in the main floor hallway of Rouge Valley PS.

Here are the completed tiles by students in our class:
