Recent reviews of School Holiday Kids Clay Workshop
- 5/5 from Anne Johnson, attended Oct 2026: Excellent class. The teacher was great with the kids and encouraged imperfections helping the kids love their artwork!! Please was hard to find even with directions.
- 5/5 from Anna Plackett, attended Jul 2026: My son and I had such a wonderful time at the workshop! I've visited the Convent hundreds of times over the years, but had no idea that Big Bite Studios was tucked away behind one of the beautiful old buildings. Soe was incredibly welcoming and made thoughtful accommodations for my son, who is a very busy and curious six-year-old. She took the time to show us the kiln and explain how it worked, which he absolutely loved. Every step of the pottery process was demonstrated so clearly and visually, and Soe was so patient and flexible—even happily changing direction several times when my son decided to create something completely different halfway through! The studio itself is beautiful, filled with handmade pottery, stunning watercolour paintings and thoughtfully curated gifts. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm looking for a special, unique gift for someone. Overall, we had an amazing few hours at Big Bite Studios. It was such a warm, creative and welcoming experience, and I've already recommended the workshops to several friends. We can't wait to come back!
