keilor gatehouse pre-school mosaic 2008

This is the mosaic that was made by Debbie Qadri with the children, teachers and parents of the Keilor Gatehouse Kindergarten in 2009. The project took a term to complete and was enabled by a grant from the Brinbank city council and the fundraising of the parent committee. Cement sheet was mounted onto the brick wall at the front of the pre-school by some parents. Children and parents took part in workshops to make features for the mosaic made out of clay.


here is an example of a feature made out of clay.


Children worked to make parts for trees out of clay. This is what it looked like on the table after it was made.


This is the pre-school logo which was incorporated into the design, of a girl and a boy. The rainbow above the logo contains the hands of children with a name written on each one.
