Ty Enfys are engaged in the ancient art of Wool Felting this term, using a resist to create hollow bowl/pod forms. Felt connects us with our natural history in a way no other fabric can. Dating back to the Bronze Age, it's been used by many cultures to make everything from toys and wearables to shelter.Felting meets the students on a visceral level, where both strength and delicacy are required. They learn the various qualities of this amazing natural textile, and how to weigh the effects of the force they exert as they transform their projects from airy fleece to sturdy pieces. They need to hone their powers of observation, evaluating the state of their project and deciding for themselves when and where to apply force. They learn that simply standing up and leaning into their work can have a significant effect.Handwork is a core part of the Steiner curriculum right through from Early Years to Upper School. Making things that are both beautiful and useful, builds not only skills and competence – but self-confidence, perseverance, patience, focus, creativity, and resourcefulness. It develops a ‘can-do’ attitude – students know how things are made because they make them themselves.We have a very limited number of places available for Upper School entry now from age 14 to 18, find out more and how to apply at:www.cardiffsteiner.org.uk/education/upper-school-2/www.cardiffsteiner.org.uk/admissions/
