Discover the magic of pottery in this 2-day summer clay course designed especially for young makers!
Our experienced tutors will guide children through a range of fun hand-building techniques, helping them transform the clay into unique creations to take home and treasure. They'll also learn how to decorate their work using colourful slips, adding their own creative flair to every piece.
Day 1:
Create a clay figure under expert guidance (with plenty of inspiring examples to spark ideas!)
Learn hand-building techniques to shape and sculpt your masterpiece
Day 2:
Build a slab-based pot, pencil holder or vessel with the option to add textures and patterns
Personalise your creations with colourful slip decorations
Throughout the workshop, children will experience the joy of working with clay, developing their creativity and confidence while creating beautiful handmade pieces. Once completed, their work will be professionally glazed and fired.
The course culminates in our exciting Summer Exhibition, where family and friends are invited to view the children's finished creations and celebrate their achievements.
The exhibition will take place on Thursday 27th August, with a private viewing from 5.30PM- 6.30PM. Children will also receive a certificate to commemorate their artistic journey.

Recent reviews of Kid's Summer Clay Course

  • 5/5 from M C Blacking, attended Aug 2026: Teaching was welcoming, friendly and encouraging - just right for 9yr old. We loved the atmosphere, the available parking and refreshments selection; really clean and organized space.
  • 3/5 from Becky Watson, attended Aug 2026: Very limited teaching, children just left to do their own thing with no instructions. Not very clear about having to attend both days.
  • 5/5 from Ruth Edwards, attended Aug 2025: My boys (9 & 10) really enjoyed their two sessions. The staff were so patient, explained techniques very well, demonstrated great interaction with my children. We will definitely be booking again in October half term.

My daughter made a pencil pot, a flower vase and got creative making lions! Thank you!
  • 5/5 from Celestina Banjo, attended Aug 2025: My daughter attended the Social Pottery Kids Summer Clay Course. In her own words. "It was sooo much fun it made me so happy"! Big up to the teacher for creating such a wholesome experience. The space felt calm and grounded, and my daughter felt really comfortable. She’s mentioned it alot since and speaks highly of the teacher—which says a lot. It’s rare to find something that feels this naturally paced and held with real care. Keep up with the wonderful offerings. Thank you.
  • 5/5 from Ruby Sen, attended Aug 2025: The 2 days pottery class was amazing, my kid really enjoyed it and had lot of fun. The class was very interactive and the kids learnt pottery making with various shapes and colours which made them happy and they too very excited seeing the end result. Thanks to all for taking care of the kids and teaching them with so much love. I would definitely recommend it to my other friends.

  • 5/5 from Nitasha Adia, attended Jul 2025: Booked the pottery class for my children they absolutely loved it. It was the very first time doing a pottery class. The teachers were lovely and talked through and demonstrated the steps with children as they were working with the clay and the pottery wheel which they enjoyed. Very therapeutic and calming. My kids want me to buy them a pottery wheel set as they enjoyed it so much. Very happy I booked the class for them.
