Sponge Roller Tray 34 x 19cm

Keep classroom painting sessions neat, creative, and engaging with the Sponge Roller Tray - Pack of 2, a practical painting accessory ideal for early years and primary school settings. Made from heavy-duty white plastic, each tray features two separate bays designed specifically for use with sponge rollers. This clever dual-well layout helps to minimise spills and drips, providing a more organised and efficient painting process for children.

Measuring 34 x 19 cm, the trays are perfectly sized for student use and offer ample space for loading paint and rolling evenly, making them excellent for covering large surfaces with colour. The two-well system encourages independence by allowing students to choose their own colours and dip rollers with ease. These bays can be used to keep colours separate or to explore colour mixing, fostering curiosity and creativity in paint-based learning.

Suitable for a wide range of paints including water-based acrylics, oil-based paints, tempera, and watercolours, these trays are a durable and reusable resource for everyday art and craft activities. Whether used in free painting, themed art projects, or collaborative murals, the sponge roller tray supports hands-on creativity while promoting self-help skills and tidy classroom practice.
