P5 Death Masks and Hieroglyphics

20th Apr 2026

Our P5 pupils showcased their creativity through their stunning Egyptian death mask projects.

Using papier-mâché techniques, they crafted and painted their masks gold before decorating them with jewels, bold eyeliner and vibrant patterns. They also explored hieroglyphics by writing their names and created colourful canopic jar artwork and portraits of their favourite gods and goddesses using oil pastels.

A fantastic display of creativity inspired by their 'Ancient Egyptians' topic!
