Please note that this does not include wheel throwing. Please let me know the ages of children attending on the booking form so that I can ensure that projects are age appropriate. Where can it take you? With further lessons, you and the family can go on to develop your hand building skills; slab building, pinch pots and coiling. If desired, you can even explore how to incorporate decoration and glaze to further enhance your pieces! All tools, equipment, materials, and firing, as described below, are included. You will be provided with an apron, but it is advisable that you wear clothing that you don’t mind getting muddy! Minimum age 7 years old and maximum child's age is 15 years old. All children must be accompanied by a participating adult. As this is a working studio H&S advice must be followed, children must be under the supervision of parents at all times. Each of you can choose one piece to be fired and glazed for you. Additional pieces can be glazed and fired at a cost of £10 an item, payable before the end of the lesson.
