Year One Pottery Studio

What an exciting start to the week we have had in Year One!  Children have been working with clay to make their own Delft plates.  First we made a ball, then we rolled it to the correct depth using a rolling pin and some depth marking guides.  Next we cut the clay with the tools into a circle and pressed it into a mould to give it its shape.  Hopefully next week we'll be able to paint and glaze the plates before displaying them.  Have a look at these potters in action!
