Spring School Holidays All Day Teen Pottery Workshop

My son was very excited for Clay with Claudia and it lived up to his expectations. Highly recommend booking a class for your child as they will have a lot of fun and create an amazing craft to take home and enjoy!

Lauren Rose • Attended Oct 2026

My girls absolutely loved this class! By far their favourite activity of the school holidays. They’re already talking about coming back again and also keen for the kids wheel classes. Claudia was great, so easy to communicate with. A local gem we will rebook for sure!

I recently attended a Keep Cup workshop with Claudia. Great fun. Impressive studio. I highly recommend you try one of the workshops.

I have done a few workshops with Claudia, she is really very patient and wants what is in my head come to life… I completed a make your own mug short course, I had an idea, ran with it and I can’t wait to see the final result once it’s out of the kiln.

Kirsten Mitchell • Attended Sep 2026

Had a fantastic time making my own mug. Claudia was very welcoming, knowledgeable and easy to work with for my first time doing pottery.

Highly recommend and will be back for more classes.

Nicole Makhudu • Attended Sep 2026

Wheel Throwing Taster Class

Knowing Claudia as a fun, dynamic and very skilled teacher, I couldn’t expect this event to be any different: What a lovely experience! I brought my family along for a “get to know ceramics” session, enjoying a drink, meeting people and learning some of the basics with Claudia. We all want to come back soon for more :)

Sarah Plumer • Attended Aug 2026

Great idea for a family/friend catch up doing something new and fun together.

We learnt to make bowls, was fun, and some hidden talents emerged. Others enjoyed the atmosphere. Claudia is very kind, patient, knowledgeable and a great host. Nothing is too much trouble. A very warm and welcoming space. Cant wait to try a different class!

Wheel Throwing Taster Class

Great class, Claudia was friendly and very knowledgeable - would recommend to anyone wanting to make a bowl!

My sister in-law invited me along to a workshop.

I will admit i was a little worried I might not be able to produce anything worth taking home.

But! With a step by step workshop and help on hand when needed, I am quite happy with my very first attempt!!!

I cannot fault the class, or the ‘teachers’.

If you are looking for something to immerse yourself in for a few hours, with help from both instuctors and those in the class who have a bit of experience, then this is the right place

Booked my daughter and friends into this class as a school holiday treat. The location is great for Oyster Bay locals and Claudia is a patient and experienced teacher. My daughter had attended Claudia's class at Hazelhurst so was looking forward to doing a class with friends who were new to clay. Kids were very excited to have the space to themselves and were keen to maximise their time. They learned techniques suited to kids new to clay such as cutting and pinch pots and had enough time to paint their work before firing. My daughter is definitely interested to trial a term class next year.

Parent and Child Hand Building Pottery Workshop

I was pleased when I saw Claudia and her assistant Laura were running another graffito workshop and thrilled to get the last spot! It’s so easy to be creative in a calming environment with the guidance of them both. I’m very happy with my creations and look forward to getting into some more classes, whatever they may offer!

Amanda Williams • Attended Jul 2026

I recently attended a child/parent class and we loved every minute of it! It was so nice to slow down with my boys and create something together while being guided by our wonderful teacher Claudia. She gave us freedom of creativity while guiding us with techniques and now we have a special piece that we will cherish forever. I would strongly recommend this to all my friends.

Amanda Williams • Attended Jul 2026

My boys attended the school holiday class and had the most wonderful time with Claudia. They were so proud of what they had made and said they can’t wait for the next one! We’ll definitely booking in again.

Ali Loughrey • Attended Jul 2026

Such a lovely class with Claudia! A relaxed pace with a beautiful finished product, as well as an experienced and kind tutor. Definitely recommend!

Kristy Voon • Attended Jul 2026

Claudia is nice and friendly. She is very organised and her studio is neat and clean. Her instructions are clear and easy to understand. Highly recommended :)

Julie Mahlberg • Attended Jul 2026

Thoroughly enjoyed the Sgrafitto workshop that was hosted by Claudia. The workshop was well run and it was a very relaxing and enjoyable experience. Claudia is an excellent teacher who is very knowledgeable and encouraging to all.

Andrea Johnson • Attended Jul 2026

I had such a wonderful time at Claudia’s sgraffito class this past Saturday. The space itself is lovely—so light, bright, and welcoming—and the class size was just right. Everyone was incredibly friendly, making for a great atmosphere from start to finish.

Claudia and Laura were exceptional teachers. They helped us accomplish so much in such a short window, and I walked away feeling genuinely proud of learning a new technique. Even though I already have a decent amount of pottery techniques, this class has a low barrier to entry and would be equally ideal for complete beginners.

One of my favourite parts was that while we all learned the same core technique, everyone walked out with a completely unique creation. Claudia and Laura took the time to help each person plan and execute their own distinct design. Highly recommend!

Homely Creations Pottery Workshop for Teens

Absolutely brilliant workshop. The studio space is clean, light, warm and welcoming and Claudia was amazing at keeping everything flowing seamlessly. With two teachers on hand and a perfect class size, there was always someone to help you. The entire class produced beautiful work, which is a testament to the carefully planning and the kind, encouraging and skilled teaching. Will be coming back for sure!

Tania Johnson • Attended Jul 2026

Last minute booking and no regrets! My girls had a great time and made quality ceramic pieces. Claudia was friendly and built a rapport easily with them. Highly recommend this class as an activity that gets kids using their hands and creativity.

Angela Bohlmann • Attended Jul 2026

Excellent studio and expert advice from Claudia. We learnt so much during the course and thoroughly enjoyed every minute. Claudia really knows her stuff and takes the time to teach, while also letting you enjoy the mindfulness of working with the clay. And, we made some awesome bowls, plates and vases. We’ll be back!

Jessica Butler • Attended Jul 2026

The kids absolutely loved the clay pottery class. They had a lot of fun! Will book in for next school holidays. Thank you!

Chloe Xi • Attended Jul 2026

My children absolutely loves Claudia's pottery classes. We live nearby, and I only wish we'd known about your wonderful studio and Claudia much earlier!

Lenka Bednarikova • Attended Jul 2026

Our 8yrs old son said this was the best holiday activity he's ever done (and he has done heaps). He came back home pumped and asked to go again next school holiday. Thank you heaps to Claudia!

Magda Kamper • Attended Jul 2026

My grandkids just had a kids pottery clay class with Claudia Citton.

They enjoyed making a clay penguin scene and loved painting it too.

Claudia was great with guiding them through each step with clear communication throughout the class.

Thanks Claudia, I’ll definitely be rebooking.

Harvey March • Attended Jul 2026

So much fun! I loved it. Cant wait to do it again next school holidays!

Wheel Throwing Course for Beginners to Intermediate

I had the pleasure of attending one of Claudia’s classes. It was a great night, I made a beautiful Mug. I would definitely sign up for another class again.

Lisa Gleeson • Attended May 2026

"I had a fantastic time at these pottery lessons! The instructor was so incredibly friendly and welcoming. She was also extremely helpful, offering step-by-step guidance and lending a hand whenever I got stuck. Highly recommend this class to anyone looking to try something new!"

Parent and Child Hand Building Pottery Workshop

Thank you for a wonderful time!

Jessica Hill • Attended Jun 2026

Lucas and I had the best time at the parent/child ceramics class with Claudia. From the moment we walked in, we felt completely supported and encouraged. Claudia has a wonderful way of teaching that guides you through the technical while giving you the freedom to be creative. We both walked away so proud of what we made, and we can’t recommend Clay with Claudia enough. We will be back!

Melissa Anderson • Attended Jun 2026

Claudia's class was excellent! We celebrated a friend's birthday by going to this workshop. We were unsure what to expect, both being beginners - but Claudia's lovely, warm, and inclusive style meant we felt instantly at ease and made some great clay cups. Claudia was also very accommodating with our booking. Thank you Claudia, and good luck with building your wonderful business!

Wheel Throwing Course for Beginners to Intermediate

I have been looking to do a pottery class with my friends. This was perfect such a cute little studio and parking is very easy. Claudia was very helpful and welcoming. The instructions were easy to follow and we were all impressed with what we had achieved in the 2 hours. Will definitely book this class again.

Lara Newton • Attended May 2026

I attended an evening 5 week adults Wheel Throwing Class. I have done pottery before, many years ago. Claudia has taught me so much in those 5 weeks. Helped me correct bad habits I had picked up. Was very encouraging with improving my throwing technique and decorative style suggestions. If you have ever thought pottery may be something for you I encourage you to sign up with Claudia and give it a go. A fun way to meet new people and bring out your creative side. Thank you Claudia.

Wheel Throwing Taster Class

Claudia hosted the most fantastic wheel-throwing pottery “party” for our group. She created such a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere — encouraging us to bring drinks, platters, our own music and plenty of laughs along the way.

As busy parents, it was the perfect creative outlet and such a fun way to switch off and connect. Supporting a talented local business was the icing on the cake or perhaps the glaze on the pottery…..

Highly recommend booking yourself a pottery party with Claudia — we’ll definitely be back!

Pottery Party for Kids

The birthday party was fabulous. It was one of the easiest I have ever hosted for my daughter.

The Host was fabulous, kind and fun. All of the kids had a wonderful time.

Teen Pottery Workshop: Sea World Creations

My 12yo daughter and her friend had a great time. They said Claudia showed them so many different techniques of working with the clay, and made the day very enjoyable! They cannot wait to pick up their finished work.

Lily Barnidge (Daughter) • Attended Apr 2026

I thought it was really fun and Claudia really helped me. Will book another class.

Kathryn Ashton • Attended Apr 2026

My ten year old daughter loved the class. This is the second time she has attended. She loves the creative environment and was thrilled with her work. The teacher was supportive, instructive and welcoming. A very enjoyable morning. Thanks Kath

Yliane Yvanes-Giuliani • Attended Mar 2026

This was a really fun way to spend an afternoon and create something different! This would suit total beginners in ceramics as well as people with some experience who want to try a new technique. There were lots of examples to get inspired by and all the tools to create something beautiful. I will definitely be back at Claudia’s studio!

Catherine Giammarco • Attended Mar 2026

Great class doing scraffito and ceramics, it was beginner friendly and similar skillset to lino printing

Tony Mangioni • Attended Mar 2026

Many years ago, I tried pottery classes while I was working, but at the time, it just wasn't the right fit. Recently, I got back in touch with Claudia and discovered she now has her own studio—and I am so glad I did!

My wife and I joined her for a Hand-Building Sgraffito Workshop, and we were certainly not disappointed. Claudia is an exceptional teacher who guides you through every single step with patience and expertise. Along with the art teacher, Laura, they helped us create some truly beautiful pieces.

We are "all fired up" and can’t wait to pick up the finished articles to showcase at our upcoming dinner parties! ️

If you’re looking for a refreshing, creative, and professional experience, I highly recommend Claudia. You will not be disappointed!

Sue Northwood • Attended Mar 2026

Claudia's handbuilding sgraffito workshop was excellent. The teachers were very knowledgeable, helpful, positive and friendly. The workshop was well prepared and doable within the time frame with everything supplied. The studio is beautiful and well equipped and comfortable and Claudia will take care of the final glazing and the firings. All in all a terrific experience which I highly recommend even if you are a pottery beginner.
