Grade 5 students have been busy with clay this term, creating fantastic Dragons. This in preparation for Marc McBride, illustrator of Deltora Quest visiting our school for Book Week. Students created their dragon with pinch pots, then added wings, neck, legs, with the “scratch and attach” technique. Some dragons have great texture used with objects around the classroom. Looking forward to seeing these once they are out of the kiln and get painted! 
After working really hard, grade six have finally finished their pots! These will look fantastic in the Community Garden!! 🙂
As you can see, most of the grade sixes have finished painting their pots. This week, they will be glazing the pots, and then putting them in the kilm to finish off.
This week the grade sixs will be painting their humorous pinch pots.
The grade 6’s are currently working on pinch pots made out of clay for our Community Garden. As you know, the recent Commonwealth Games held in Glasgow, had the mascot Clyde, the Thistle Man so we decided to make up our own mythical mascots for the Community Garden.
