This workshop explores the material properties of clay, and why it is a useful material for designers. Students will look at how objects from the V&A collections tell stories about who we are, the world we live in, and what we think we should celebrate or remember. There is a gallery visit and participants will experience working creatively with clay. 
 
National Curriculum links include: D&T design thinking, material properties, PSHE self-identity and expression, considering societal and community issues. Also, elements relevant to the science, geography and history curricula. 
 
Each session can accommodate a maximum of 30 students and two timeslots to choose from: AM 10.30 - 12.00 or PM 13.00 - 14.30.
