Mural by Charles & Janine Williams<br />
World famous South Auckland artists, Charles and Janine<br />
Williams faciliated a workshop at Robertson Rd School,<br />
working with students and using research of the local area<br />
to come up with the mural callled 'Hikoi' (Journey).<br />
Some key components of the mural were the Torea (Pied<br />
Oyster Catcher), a local bird which they drew parallels to<br />
community life, search for knowledge and stewardship.<br />
The artists want to give a big thanks to Principal Wayne<br />
MacGillivray for inviting them into their school and for the<br />
support of the teachers.<br />
