Week two of adults pottery classes and everyone is getting right into it – creating some fabulous pots.
Mid term enrolments are welcome, simply email me or phone me on 0438382522 to organise. Everyone works at their own pace within the class, so you won’t be behind within the class, and you will only pay for the amount of weeks left in the term.
In the meantime, enjoy the pics 🙂
Term One is always a bit of a blur with recovering from Christmas and school holidays, school fees, new school books, new school uniforms… the list goes on!
And yes, pottery classes start this week too!
But don’t panic, there are still spaces available, and if you’re not organised enough for this week the following week or mid term enrolments are welcome. Your child won’t have missed out on anything. Children within the class work at their own pace and are different levels, so nobody feels left behind.
If you enrol in week two or mid term I simply adjust the term fees to reflect how many weeks are left in the term. If you enrol online this can be credited back via clay and/or firing fees.
Children’s classes are held on Saturday mornings or Wednesday afternoons.
You can enrol online via the SHOP or call me on 0438382522 🙂
Meanwhile here are some pics of works made in the children’s class from last term.
Pottery classes begin this week at the ClayMotion studio, and there are a few places still available, but they won’t last long!
Visit the CLASSES page for more information about days and times, or go to the SHOP to enroll online … or ring Dawn on 0438382522 🙂
In the meantime here are some pics of a few wonderful creations from last terms creative students 🙂
All ClayMotion children’s workshops are designed to stimulate and develop children’s thinking and design skills in a relaxed and safe environment.
Workshops are $38.00 including tuition, all materials and firing.
Enrol via the SHOP or phone 0438382522
Parents will be contacted when the creatures are fired and ready to pick up.
January 13th Fantasy creatures 10-12noon
Children will create a fantasy creature from their imagination using the hand modelling and hollowing out technique. Creatures will then be finished with textures and coloured slips..
This is a fun activity designed to stimulate the children’s imagination, and aid dexterity and fine motor skills..
January 20th Monsters 2-4pm
During this workshop children will create a monster lidded pot using the pinching technique. Details such as eyes, teeth and horns will then be applied. Monsters will then be painted with coloured slips.
As term four draws to a close – where did that time go- I thought I would share some pics of some finished artworks created during adults classes (and there will be more to come).
Term one 2016 begins at the end of January. All the dates are available on the CLASSES page and you can enrol online via the SHOP.
So, until the next blog post have a great week 🙂
Wow, where has the time one? there are only two more weeks of term and I haven’t posted any images of finished artwork! I promise to be more vigilant in future…
In the children’s class this term there have been lots of fantasy creatures, which is great. I love it when clay is used as a sculptural medium (as opposed to functional wares, such as bowl & cups – which is also great) and kids imaginations are so fluid!
There will be some children’s school holiday workshops scheduled during January, so be sure to stay tuned by becoming a ClayMotioner and subscribing to the blog 🙂

And without further ado here are the promised creature pics 🙂
ClayMotion Christmas Party – why not try something different this year for your Christmas break up?
There is nothing better than a glass of wine with a piece of clay in your hand!
This is a great idea for office break ups, sporting clubs, mothers groups, childrens play groups and any social group in general. Packages will vary depending on whether the xmas party is catering for adults or children, but will generally include a range of beverages, finger foods and a clay activity.
Please contact me to discuss your specific needs on 0438382522 or email me on dawn@claymotion.com.au to start the discussion 🙂
It has been another busy term with lots of creativity filling the studio. Students are at varying levels with many different interests which means lots of different and interesting projects – this is what makes my job so FUN!
Here’s a few pics of what has been happening in adults classes in the studio so far this term – and remember mid term enrolments are welcome, everyone is at different levels, so even you are a newbie you will not have missed out on anything, so “do yourself a favour”!!
In the meantime here’s a few pics 🙂
Term Four Children’s Pottery Classes Began this Week, but it is not too late to join in – mid term enrolments are welcome, with fees being calculated based on how many weeks remain in the term. Your child won’t feel behind as many of the kids work at their own pace on varying projects.
This term classes are on a Saturday morning from 10-11.30am, and parents are welcome to also join the class at a reduced adult fee.
Further enquiries can be made on 0438382522 or dawn@claymotion.com.au
Check out some of the pics from last weeks class 🙂
Children’s pottery classes start this week with two class times available – Wednesday afternoons 4-5.30pm or Saturday morning 10-12noon.
Creativity is great for kids – it consolidates problem solving and literacy and mathematical skills while also developing social and free thinking skills.
Check out the CLASSES page for all the class info and enrolment details AND remember classes can be given as a gift (Christmas is coming up) by purchasing a ClayMotion gift certificate.
Enrol now ….don’t miss out!!
