Absolutely amazing course! Rosa and Cherrie were brilliant. They were very knowledgeable, helpful and always there to answer any questions and check your work is going in the right direction. If was my first time with pottery, but felt so confident thanks to the support from Rosa and Cherrie. The course was a good level of foundational theory which set you up for the practical element. Couldn’t recommend enough!

This class was wonderful. Bright, light, airy studio (although a little tricky to find, tucked away as it is). A fabulous introduction. Teachers Rosa and Cherrie were helpful, clear, obliging and very clear in their instructions!
