Following their school holidays, the high school students returned to create yarn collages as a way of discussing their holidays. They weaved wool through a cardboard disk, then picked colours that represented something about their time away and explained to their peers what they did during their school holidays and what feelings or experiences those colours represented. They then hung all the wool collages together to make a colourful tapestry.
