Creating Clay Masterpieces

Using clay, the children in Year 5 have created their own Tudor Roses, starting with simple shapes and gradually building up the layers and details needed to make the design recognisable.

Throughout the project, the children learned a range of new clay skills, including rolling, shaping, joining and smoothing. They used tools to add texture and detail and were encouraged to take care with their work so that each piece was finished to a high standard. Many children made small adjustments as they worked, improving their designs as their confidence grew.

The project required patience and focus, especially when shaping delicate petals and refining the final details. The completed Tudor Roses show the quality of effort put in, with each one slightly different and full of character.

Year 5 should be very proud of their finished pieces. The display of Tudor Roses is a great example of craftsmanship and quality. 🌹
