Had a fab time at this class. The tutor was very helpful, supportive and entertaining and she made it all look very easy! There was a nice mix of people in the class at different levels of ability, we were all beginners though. Would definitely recommend this taster session and I plan to do more.

All in all a lovely experience. I bought the two hour course as a fun thing to do on my daughter's birthday for her, me and my son. Our teacher was great - enabling and instructive with a good sense of humour. The group was supportive and chatty. I'm glad we went for 1 hour hand-building and 1 hour on the wheel as it gave a rounded experience. We were pleased with the pieces we made and I think I'm now hooked!
