The Clay Centre

My now 13 year old son has been doing school holiday courses for a few years now. He looks forward to the classes and produces great pots. There's a great vibe and professional and attentive tutors even for the kids.

If you want to give clay a go - don’t walk, run to book. Even if you want to just try it out or have a project in mind. It will be so rewarding.nnHonestly a superb experience. I really fell in love with clay because of those classes.nnMy tutors were Sophia whom I can’t praise enough for her detail oriented approach and clear instructions, perfect for beginners like me, Iza who was so, so helpful and kind and had some amazing solutions to problems I’ve encountered, always ready to help and Cat whose creative approaches will yet again change your approach for the better. All of them were amazing and honestly made it so rewarding and fun for me.nnI have now booked a third ! course with them and have two sets of my own pieces that I can’t stop admiring.nnCan’t wait! : thank you so much!

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.nnBut 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 peoplennDecent parking in the evening.nnLoving 3 out of 4 of my final pieces!nnWould go back

Just completed a beginners level one course , it was lots of fun. Strahan made us all feel like experts, teaching us pottery throwing and glazing. Really feel inspired to do more now.

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.nnHave 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.nnCourses do book out very very fast, so get organised!
