Term 4 classes 2020-09-30

Dear Students

Thank you so much for your patience during these unprecedented pandemic times. We have taken a while to get classes up and running to ensure that we can comply with the Covid safety guidelines and the 2nd wave of cases nearby.

The good news is that Term 4 classes will recommence in October and I’m writing to let you know first. We are minimising the numbers in the class, so we wanted to contact our previous students rather than advertising outside for this Term.

Covid Safe rules will apply to all students and staff when attending the studio. A sign in register and hand sanitisers will be required on entry to studio. If you have the slightest sign of an illness, please do not attend. (Further Covid compliance guidelines for PCAI studio will be supplied on confirmation of your enrolment).

The class fee has increased slightly, due to reduced class size and external costs to PCAI.

We are so lucky to have secured our beloved Peter Dwyer back again this Term as a teacher , as Peter is very much in demand as a TAFE tutor and is undertaking his PHD studies in Ceramics at the National Art School, Sydney. So please book in ASAP as this may be Peters last Term with us for a while.

Some of you have a 2 week credit from last Term, which we can honour in a course fee reduction or by attending a 6 hour class on a Saturday during Term( date TBC). I will contact those people directly.
