You are welcome to try origami for one term or enjoy the benefits for the entire year. This is a practical hands-on class where your skills will build over the term. Each term is carefully planned to suit beginners and continuing members. You will create multiple designs each lesson and different models every term. Each class is kept small so support can be given as required. If class shows as 'FULL' please contact tutor for any cancellations.
