Swift Class are Artists and Sculptors!

Over the past few weeks, Swift Class have been studying the architecture of Sir Christopher Wren.
They have looked at how he used symmetry and repeating patterns in his architecture.
They then looked closely at how to draw curved surfaces before studying Tudor chimney pots.
They then designed their own chimney pot which they created in clay. They developed their clay sculpting techniques by learning how to use a slip. They finally glazed their chimney pots with a mix of paint and PVA glue.
A huge thank you goes to Miss Waugh and Mrs Lees who led the actual clay sessions for me!
