At the beginning of 2018 Cobargo PS decided that it was time for the school’s sculpture cow to have a makeover. For quite a few years she has been standing in the veggie patch with a lovely vegetable design reflecting the schools strong gardening program.
After the decision to give the cow a makeover was make CPS students submitted possible designs for the new artwork. The CPS students were strategic, thoughtful and realistic when coming up with their design plans.
The whole school then held a vote to decide which ideas we would like incorporated into the artwork going onto the cow. They decided that a landscape painting of Cobargo’s silhouette at dusk would look great on the cow. The students also picked a new name for the cow.
She is now named Luna.
At this stage we needed help!
It was clear that making our grand designs come to life was going to require the help of an expert. Luckily we had the generous and talented David Forster to the rescue. David volunteered his time to teach the students in specific techniques needed to make their designs come to life. Without his help the full potential of the students design would have been unachievable.
After a day with Dave and the CPS student Luna the cow is now looking better than ever. We are very blessed to have such talented students and community members who make projects like this successful!
