Making clay pots the traditional African way

Our theme in Afrikaans (the second language in most South African schools) was Art. we spent some time making little clay pots. As you can see, everyone had great fun making and painting these, and I think they look pretty good.

Deciding which colours to use -  Jordanne re-painted this pot a number of times before she was satisfied.














A lot of time and effort went into these. I think moms and dads will be thrilled to see them.









After making the pots and painting them, everybody wrote an article explaining how they
made the pots, what colours they used, and what they would use these for.



The one on the left which is a hat and not a bowl, was made by Nikita. (No surprise to those of us who know her!)
