First week of Term Four Pottery Classes in Ballarat
Adults Pottery Classes in Ballarat
Well that was a whirlwind week for week one of term four – I can’t believe it is almost the end of the year!!
Anyway, here is what students got up to for the first week of making: pinch pots, coil pots and glazing!
And remember that childrens classes start this week too – tell your friends 🙂
School Holiday Program AND Adults Classes Start this Week!
I’m a bit slow with this weeks school holiday workshop update – that is because my NBN has been down since last Thursday!! I was doing minimal stuff thinking it would be resolved by now – but NO! So I am now chewing up my mobile hotspot coverage (yes I will be demanding compensation) to share the FAB plates & bowls made during the workshop 🙂

finished plates
drying plates

And, remember adults classes start this week, and there are a few vacancies available – so visit the SHOP and enrol 🙂

Well term three is underway, after a snowy start to the term, with adults classes beginning last week and children’s classes stating this week.

Here is a collage of whats happened so far this term….
And some pics of finished student works from last term….
Fathers Day School Holiday Workshop – pencil holders and coin dishes
Wednesday mornings school holiday class was a great success with seven happy children making presents for dad. We made pencil holders and coin dishes which were painted with coloured clips. They are now drying before being loaded into the kiln and a clear shiny glaze being applied.
There is another workshop this coming Wednesday 6th July in the afternoon from 2-4pm and again we will be making gifts for dad, grandpa, an uncle or a family friend, whatever dad is special in your life. We will be making a coffee mug and a key/coin dish, so jump on the website, visit the shop and enrol online or call me on 0438382522
Here’s some pics from last Wednesdays class 🙂
School Holiday Program and Term Three
Term two is over for children’s classes and there is one more week left for adults classes – that sure went fast!
It was a great term with students being so patient with the delays of the kilns being connected after the studio renovations – which you can read about HERE. Thankyou students 🙂
The CLASSES page has been updated for term three, and the SCHOOL HOLIDAY PROGRAM page is updated for this coming holidays, and you can enrol easily via the SHOP.
This school holidays classes are all about Fathers Day which is on September 4th this year. Make dad, grandpa or an uncle a mug and key chain or a pencil holder and coin dish…. both classes are different, so the kids can join in both.
Meanwhile, here are a few photo collages from during term two children’s classes to tempt you!
Have a great week 🙂
Term Two Classes are Underway!
Term two is a long term – eleven weeks – after a short term one due to Easter, but we have just finished week three: where did that time go?
The weather so fr has been great, with a gorgeous Autumn and mild calm weather – until the last few days…. it has started getting windy which can be typical for this time of year. But, never fear, the studio is toasty warm with the wood heater in full swing.
Remember that mid term enrolments are welcome with fees being calculated based on how many weeks are left in term. Can’t commit to an entire term? Â Casual rates are available with your choice of three classes to attend.
And to inspire you check out some of the creations so far this term 🙂
Enjoy!
Children’s Classes – Finished Works & School Holiday Program
Happy Easter Everyone!!
Term One has come to an end, but for children there are still fun opportunities over the school break with two workshops being held on each Wednesday of the holidays – in both classes we are making Mothers Day gifts. these gifts will make great pressies for mums, nanas, aunts, sisters, even the neighbour across the road!
These classes will be lots of fun … check the SCHOOL HOLIDAY PROGRAM page for all the details.
But, of course, there was lots of great work made by the children during term one…. check out some of the posts about term one HERE.
Meanwhile here are some finished works by the children during term one … enjoy!
Some Finished Works from Term One – Pottery in Ballarat
Term One was a short term due to Easter, and it went so fast!
The dates for term two are on the CLASSES page and I suggest you enrol soon, as places are filling fast. I am contemplating putting on another adults class so the sooner I know numbers the easier it will be to organise times.
There is also a SCHOOL HOLIDAY PROGRAM these holidays focusing gifts for Mothers Day, so be sure to check that out.
I have scheduled some WORKSHOPSÂ for term two and term four, both suitable for beginners, so check that page out for more info.
I’ll leave you with some pics of finished artworks from term one, and look forward to term two 🙂
