Students at Chute Lake Elementary are showing off their latest creative projects.

Tonight the public will have an opportunity to see the watercolour exhibits, painted by the students and directed by artist Janice Kierstead.

The Art Gala is themed after Canada91裸聊视频檚 15oth birthday and features native animals and plants.

Grade 5 student Adam Wasti, 10, has been drawing since he was two and created a piece for the gala. Grade 6 student Kirsten Curliss said she got into drawing last year because her family was artistic. Both students enjoyed working on their projects which focused on painting native plants and leaves.

91裸聊视频淚t was really fun and I didn91裸聊视频檛 know anything about watercolour,91裸聊视频� said Curliss, adding she felt she was a better artist after the project.

91裸聊视频淚t was really creative because (Kierstead) sort of gave us license to do whatever we wanted within a restricted topic area so the kids could create different backgrounds,91裸聊视频� said teacher Joan Mackay.

91裸聊视频淲ith this art project we also looked at things that were native to this area, the flowers we chose were lilies and Okanagan sunflowers and we tried to pick leaves that were local to this area,91裸聊视频� she said.

Mackay said the school plans to do another watercolour project.

Parent Patty Glover helped set up the gala and has a Grade 1 student, Laura Glover at the elementary school.

91裸聊视频淚 like to be involved with the school. It contributes to the child91裸聊视频檚 success later in life when the child feels confident and the parents are involved,91裸聊视频� said Glover. 91裸聊视频淐hute Lake Elementary definitely has a very strong community.91裸聊视频�

The gala will be presented tonight at the elementary school from 6:30 to 8 p.m.
