Sad farmer at Badsey!

pottery arts project at badsey first school worcestershire led by jon the potter from eastnor herefordshireI’ve been working in partnership with Badsey Society at Badsey First School in Worcestershire. We’ve made three fabulous wall panels in the shape of an apple, plum & pear tree.

This is a plum made by a yr2 pupil and decorated in the style of a “sad farmer” – you can just about make out the tears. Why is the farmer sad? “because his horse has died” enough to bring a tear to any eye I’m sure you’ll agree!

Busy potters

made by a yr5 pupil at Brampton & Abbotts primary school in herefordshireThe summer term is always a busy one for us.

Somedays Eastnor Pottery is represented in no less than three schools or early years settings all on the same day. Last week Gemma worked with Concern International in a couple of Herefordshire Schools whilst Sarah headed over to Pershore to work with Blossom Vale Children’s Centre.

I headed north into Birmingham to work with Brearley & Teviot Nursery School and with Moonbeams 3 project at the Midlands Arts Centre.
