making cardboard automata with school kids!





In my day job, I am a chaplain at a primary school in south-east Melbourne, and as such, I get to work with small groups of children who need a little bit of extra support, especially in the areas of socialising and self-confidence. I thought one way to help them would be to give them a creative project to work on. By building these small cardboard boxes, they could express themselves, solve problems and create something cool.

A lot of hot glue later, and these are the results! I helped them work things out, but all the ideas came from the kids, and I reckon that they all did fantastic jobs!
