House Posters Taking Shape

May 30, 2025 | Digital Design, 2025 Archive

Digital Design students have spent the past fortnight bringing our house identities to life through bold, original posters. The project is part of our “Design for Change” unit, where students apply their creative skills to work with purpose and meaning.

Using Canva for layout and Adobe Fresco for illustration, they’ve been learning how to combine colour, composition, and storytelling to reflect the character of Te Henga, Te Piha, Muriwai, and Wai Karekare. The classrooms have been full of ideas, experimentation, and teamwork.

We’re looking forward to seeing the final posters displayed around the school. It’s a great example of student voice in action, and design used to build community.

The experience built confidence, coordination, and a bit of theatrical flair—combining physical skill with teamwork and timing. They wrapped up the week with a screening of The Princess Bride (popcorn included).
