Planter Project.

A class of infants started a class project to make a planter to take home.

They wanted to use a plant in it that was easy to take care of, so it was decided to use cacti.

The students were given greenware pottery planters shaped like a clown which they painted with glaze and had professionally fired at a class outing so they could see the process. It was great fun.

They planted the cactus seeds in the finished planters and they grew nicely, but unfortunately the students were not allowed to take them home.

The cactus plants were removed and replaced by a small ivy, at which point the children were allowed to take them home.

The teacher said cactus seemed like a good idea at the time...
