KIDS SCHOOL HOLIDAY WORKSHOPS


Kids School Holiday Workshops

$79 AUD per day

Only 6 children per class: 7-12 years

What to expect:

Two hours. Unlimited clay. Zero screens. Maximum mess (the fun kind).

If you're hoping to avoid hearing "I'm bored" before 10am this school holidays, we've got you covered. Kids aged 7-12 years will jump between two hands-on pottery experiences—one hour on the wheel, one hour hand building.

Think mugs, bowls, animal shapes, dinosaurs... if they can imagine it, they can make it.

No experience? Perfect. We'll provide the clay, aprons, and plenty of encouragement. You enjoy a well-earned breather while they discover they can actually make something pretty awesome with their own two hands.

What's Going Down

Wheel Throwing
Learn the basics, how to center clay and make a real piece on the pottery wheel. It's trickier than it looks—and twice as satisfying.

Hand-Building
Time to let loose. You will learn the pinch pot method, some slab making, how to join and sculpt clay, into anything from cute creatures to snack bowls and everything in between.

When it's all over, you can decide what clay creations you would like to keep and we can fire them and you can come back and paint them. Each piece is an additional $15, which can be paid at the end of the class.

Good to know: When it's all over, you can decide what clay creations you would like to keep and we can fire them and you can come back and paint them. Each piece is an additional $15, which can be paid at the end of the class.

Who Can Join:

  • Kids with big imaginations and even bigger energy.

  • Future potters, monster makers, mug designers and clay squishers.

  • Parents looking to dodge another chorus of "I'm boooored."

  • Anyone who's happy to swap screen time for spin time.

  • Families who believe getting messy is part of the fun.

Before you get muddy!

  • Ages 7-12 – This workshop is designed for young makers aged seven and up.

  • Say Good Bye, Drop & Go – Once everyone's settled in, it's your cue to enjoy a couple of kid-free hours.

  • Clay has a mind of its own – Every now and then a piece might crack or break. It's all part of working with clay, and while we take every care, we can't guarantee every creation will survive the process.

Note: Firing & Glazing takes roughly 4-5 weeks. We will contact you when your pieces are ready. If you do not return to pick up your pottery within a month of the pickup date, we'll donate it to those in need in our community.

*We are open for pick up Monday-Friday 10am-3pm and on Saturday mornings from 9-2pm.
