Pottery Christmas decorations workshop

Waikato Society of Potters

9 December 6-9pm

Have you put your tree up yet? The festive season is upon us and people are starting to think about injecting some Christmas cheer into our spaces.

Come along to our Christmas decoration making workshop and make some beautiful decorations to add a tasteful touch to your tree, or even make a few decorations to give away as unique gifts.

You don't need any previous clay experience and even absolute beginners will be able to make something gorgeous with Yasmin's guidance. However, this workshop caters to adults and children who are 12 and over who have a vaccine pass

The cost includes 2.5kg of clay which will make a few decorations, as well as use of our underglazes to add a touch of colour. Firing and glazing will cost a few dollars extra depending on how much you make.

Pleases note: My Vaccine Pass is in operation at the studio.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
