Class one was clay night. We made bowls using the pinch pot method and the kids had a ball getting messy. Next week they will paint their creations.
Ceramics is an art form as old as man and in fact many of the kids creations resembled some of those early clay pots.
When these bowls come home they will be perfect little jewellery or knick-knack holders but they’re not food safe so I’m afraid they won’t be able to use them for the morning cereal!
