Tie and Dye is an exciting and interactive activity commonly used in schools to nurture creativity,
teach color theory, and provide students with a hands-on experience. Some of its educational benefits
include:
1. Exploring Color Theory: Tie and dye offers a practical way for students to delve into color mix-
ing and combinations.
2. Artistic Expression: Students can unleash their creativity by experimenting with various patterns

and color choices.
3. Cultural Awareness: Tie and Dye has historical and cultural significance across different tradi-
tions. It’s not just a creative process; it’s also an opportunity for students to learn and have fun.
During the Tie and Dye process, students had a blast, and their excitement was evident as they proudly
displayed their beautifully patterned T-shirts. The hands-on approach left each student beaming with a
sense of accomplishment. Staff also wore Adire (local fabric made using the Tie and Dye process) as
part of the Tie and Dye theme.
