The pupils of class 4AJ had a wonderful, if somewhat messy, time creating Saxon amulets. Due to the high prices of precious metals we sadly, had to plump for clay as our material of choice. The children enjoyed sketching their designs, then moulding the clay into the desired shape for their amulet. Finally the children etched in their designs inspired by original Saxon amulets or from ideas sprung from their own imaginations. Please see the gallery for pictures of their air-dried amulets, this week we plan to paint their final pieces.
