Tapa Cloth
As part of our Caritas focus on the Pacific we learnt a little bit about Tapa Cloth, which is a special bark cloth made in Tonga and Fiji among other Pacific countries. Tapa cloth is made from the bark of mulberry trees and takes a long time to make. Plants are used to make dyes to paint the tapa cloth.
We made out own tapa cloth using paper and crayon and a template to create a pattern.
