Our class trip to the Suter Art Gallery plus classroom activities

Here we are just about ready to head into the Suter Art Gallery where will be looking at a pottery exhibition by Paul Winspear and creating our own clay bowl.

Esther Mc Naughton explained to us about Paul's pottery. He lives Golden Bay and creates beautiful pottery that can be used in our homes. The adults who came with us were very impressed just as we were!


Here we are ready to begin our bowls. We are going to also make a clay model of New Zealand and place it in the middle of our bowls.


What a fabulous time we had . we made long snake pieces of clay to form the base of our bowls. We can't wait until Esther fires our pottery bowls and we then can paint them and take them home! A wonderful experience was had by all! Thanks, Suter Art Gallery!
