My partner and I booked a 'Wheel & Wine' for our date night and we had the best time. The staff were incredibly skilled, friendly and helpful - and they do not allow you to leave with a product that looks too bad! The level of assistance is perfect, they leave you to it but will help fix something if you mess it up. The atmosphere is really relaxed and it's a lot of fun. Pics of the end result with our chosen colour of glazing. I highly recommend giving this a go.
The lady at the Clay Centre patiently listened to me as I explained that I needed clay pots for growing plants for our Solar New Year Table. She searched the workshop until she found what I was looking for and kindly gave them to me. These photos show the result. Grateful for her kindness. Happy New Year!
Hubby and I went to Wheel & Wine for date night! Had so much fun. Iza was a great teacher, and Jasmine helped make our pieces look great!! Will be back again for sure!!
Great great experience, we all had our own time with the teachers when we needed it. A brilliant beginner insight into the clay wheel. Made 2 cups and 2 saucers glazed and decorated! Such an amazing experience. We had Stacey as our teacher and she is a magician and very good teacher!
Pretty expensive classes per session compared to other places I’ve been to which range from like $30 per class. Did the 5 weeks beginner level 1 and you get 4 pieces included into the fee $245pp+$25 fee. 2 nights of making, 2 nights of trimming maybe making if you have time, 1 night of glazing. But really nice spot and teachers! Enjoyed Strahan and Cats attempts to ease us beginners into playing with it and not be perfectionists. Very lovely calming time with them, felt I could get help despite the class of ~16 people Decent parking in the evening. Loving 3 out of 4 of my final pieces! Would go back
Great place for beginners to the experienced. Tutors are amazing and the facility has all the bells and whistles. Highly recommend.
A bit of a mission to get tickets as they are high demand! However had so much fun in the Wheel & Wine class as first time potters. Recommendations: - Bring a friend! - Don’t hold back on bringing a nice cheese platter and make sure to start eating and drinking as soon as you’re seated. - Bring an apron and extra towels. - If it is a full class, the tutors will be busy trying to look out for everyone so a reminder! put your hand up without hesitation even if you feel shy. - You get two clumps of clay. One is free comes with the ticket and other you can buy. If you like the results of both, buy the other which costs another $15. - Perfect for an occasion and to do in remembrance of a celebration i.e birthday, anniversary, etc All tutors were so lovely and their guidance was very much needed for anxious first-timers as myself and my partner. Picked up our cup/bowl 2~3 weeks after we made it. Loved the result and would keen to try the Coffee & Clay class in the near future.
If you’ve never done wheel throwing before, this is the place I’d recommend you to go. The instructor was so patient, lovely and humorous. As someone who’s never done wheel throwing before, I am very happy with what I managed to get out with just a 2 hour session.
Went to a 4 night wheel taster course here and absolutely loved it. The two instructors, Sofyah and Strahan were amazing! They made sure they knew our names, they would fix up any mistakes you made and ensured everyone came out of the course with pieces they were proud of. We loved it from start to end, and were already planning to do the next course before we'd even finished the first. Have recommended this place to everyone I know. If you are more advanced you can get a membership here, which would save you purchasing equipment. There is also a store located on the premises for pottery needs. Courses do book out very very fast, so get organised!
The Clay Centre hosted us for our work Christmas Party and everyone in the team absolutely loved their experience and today after picking up our masterpieces everyone is so proud of what they made. The staff made us feel welcomed and really made it an enjoyable time. I've also attended a Coffee & Clay class and had the same great experience!
