Class 6 Expression of Self Through Doll Making

24 November 2025

Making a doll is a challenging project, both from a technical viewpoint and a personal one. Creating the image of the human being in doll form brings the maker into a new perspective on self. Our students engage with the challenge of doll making in their handwork lessons during Class 6. As the students become increasingly aware of facing the transition into high school, they are putting the finishing touches on their handwork dolls. Even though every student began with the same materials and followed the same sequence of steps to make the doll, each doll turns out as an individual, as unique as its maker. The variety and ingenuity which students bring to their dolls never ceases to amaze. Photos below are of the dolls in progress, ready for students to add their finishing touches!
