A group of Year 8 girls at Overnewton College, Keilor Campus are making ceramic murals about Alice in Wonderland. Debbie is teaching them new techniques of making and decorating the ceramic features. When the ceramic parts are ready, the students will glue them onto blueboard and mosaic the background. similar projects by Debbie can be found at: http://mosaicprojectsbydebbieqadri.blogspot.com

glazing and gluing
Above: the girls are glazing the individual ceramic pieces, ready to go into the kiln for the glaze firing.
The ceramic pieces are glued onto the blueboard. Here the girls are using a glue called "Supermastic".
Above: The design needs to be drawn onto the blueboard base and the ceramic works are traced onto the board, so that their size in the design is drawn correctly.
