Wheel Trimming

Term Based Wheel Classes

3 hours x 8 weeks

$440 – 8x 3 hour classes

This 8 week x 3 hour term runs with the school terms. These classes are taught by potting professionals and are suited to potters that have already learnt the basics. Please don’t sign up to this class if you haven’t tried the wheel before. You’ll find the 8 Week Beginners Wheel term much more fun.

The classes are small enough that you get the one on one attention you need to progress your skills further.

Wheel Throwing you’ll develop your skills in:

  • Wedging
  • Forming the vessel you’re after
  • Pulling and attaching handles
  • Different decorating techniques
  • Glazing
  • Flatware
  • Throwing off the hump

You’ll be given half a bag of clay at the start of the term. More clay can be purchased if needed. Remember, once fired your pieces may be with you for the rest of your life, so we encourage quality over quantity.

Unfortunately we don’t offer refunds for missed classes.
