A wonderful morning at The Spinning Wheel as we welcomed the young learners from La Mere Academy for an immersive pottery experience! The students spent two engaging hours exploring both pottery wheel throwing and hand-building techniques, learning how clay transforms through creativity, patience, and skill.
From centering clay on the wheel and shaping their own pieces to creating unique hand-built projects, the children experienced the joy of working with their hands while developing focus, coordination, and confidence. Beyond the artwork they created, the session offered a valuable opportunity to step outside the classroom and learn in a completely different environment—one that encourages exploration, imagination, and self-expression.
We loved seeing their excitement, curiosity, and pride as they discovered the magic of clay. Thank you, La Mere Academy, for spending the day creating with us at The Spinning Wheel!
