Terrific venue, high quality tooling and very experienced and patient teacher. Would make a great gift.
Samuel Inglis
I loved it because there was so much paint and it was so messy. And I thought it was fun because you could do whatever I wanted with paint. It was the best birthday gift I ever had. From Leah 10 and Stella 7 ️.

The teachers gave very good instruction on how to use the tufting gun and made sure to keep an eye out if we struggled plus went over each rug to make sure we were taking home a fluffy rug. This was so much fun and will definitely be doing this again! + more

I experimented with latte art at home with mixed results, but didn't have anyone to tell me what I'm doing wrong. Having a teacher makes all the difference, and the teacher leading the class was a latte art champion with many years experience. I cannot say I mastered all the patterns in the class, but I learned the basics and can practice further at home. + more

Father's Day Ideas
Unique Father’s Day gift ideas for every kind of Dad
When it comes to finding unique Father’s Day gift ideas, the key is choosing something that feels personal, thoughtful, and made just for him.

At ClassBento, you’ll find hundreds of creative workshops and artisan-led experiences across Australia, from knife forging and woodworking to wine tasting and gourmet cooking.
If he’s the type who loves to roll up his sleeves, why not try a pottery class, resin art workshop, or leather crafting session? These experiences let him learn something new while creating a keepsake to treasure. Sheena B. summed it up perfectly:
“Absolutely fabulous class! I bought it for a Father's Day present for my dad and me to hang together, doing something he and I both have an interest in (resin). Great teacher, great class.”
Resin Art Class: Cheeseboard and Coasters with Seed and Spark
For something a little different, surprise him with the chance to learn an instrument from scratch. As Matty shared:
“My wife got me ukulele lessons as a Father's Day gift and it was great. Dan was engaging, incredibly knowledgeable, and at the end of the lesson, I could already play a song (I had never even held a ukulele before the class). I've since purchased a uke and can't wait to play it for my daughter.”

One daughter shared her experience with a Father’s Day activity:
“What an amazing class! My dad and I went for Father's Day, and it was so much fun. Our teacher was awesome, and even though we were complete amateurs, he helped us learn how to create a better artwork than we ever thought we could. It was a lovely venue, everything was supplied for us and at a great price. We will definitely be back!”
