Wood Carving Course
Tuition in wood carving is offered on an ‘ongoing basis’ – from beginners to more advanced carvers – students can join a class anytime regardless of their skill level.
Some woodcarvings prefer to work at home and merely require us to suply wood / patterns / cut offs.
All projects made during the classes may be taken home.
Special Woodworking Courses
We offer some specialised courses other than the foundation courses, these courses are negotiable in price depending on what needs to be done.

Please note fees are reviewed annually – usually in December and take effect from 1st January!
Also note there are 2 components to our fees – one is tuition only – the second is in respect of materials and consumables costs which are constantly under review given our high inflation rate.
