School Linking Day at Z Arts

We ran Clay city workshops for year 5 pupils of St John's Primary and Cheadle Heath Primary, as part of a schools-linking project at Z Arts.
Pupils each made a personalised clay apartment and were set the challenge of assembling them into tower blocks in teams. This was followed by making clay connections between the tower blocks in the form of roads, wires, rivers, tightropes and many other imaginative clay creations.
