The children in Class 2 and Class 3 were joined last week by Naomi and Pepe who have established the Jasmine Pottery Studio, producing beautiful pottery and holding workshops for adults and children. Naomi and Pepe taught our children how to mould and layer their clay, using examples from existing pottery products to inspire their own unique designs and patterns.
The children in Class 2 really enjoyed the challenge of putting handles onto their designs with some choosing to test themselves by attempting to put up to four handles on their vases! Naomi took the finished pottery to be glazed and fired, so that they are strong and robust. We are looking forward to receiving the finished products in time to share these with our parents and carers at our Art Showcase.
Scarlett L in Class 2 said “I liked putting the handles on using the cross-hatch technique. It was tricky, but it was fun.”
The children in Class 3 said “We had a really fun afternoon making clay vases and painting them. It was lovely to see how each one was unique.”
