Monthly Home School Pottery Group

Since February 2024, our home school pottery sessions have been a local favourite for young people aged 9–16. Originally run as private groups, we are excited to be opening these up to the wider home-educating community from September 2026. 

These sessions are designed for deep learning. We prioritise teaching your children the proper skills of pottery, making use of our fully equipped city centre studio. To ensure students have the time to build, refine, fire, and glaze their pieces, we will be working in 3-month blocks.
