Sparrowhawks had lots of fun today making traditional German decorated winter lanterns from clay with Julie Fowler, as part of our learning about Germany for World Awareness weeks. The finished lanterns will hold a candle, and the candlelight will shine through shaped holes made in the walls of the lantern.
