I am a newbie in woodworking, I did a spoon carving workshop and loved it. I had fun, learning techniques and tools and carving my first ever wooden spoon. I will definitely do another workshop, and want to continue learning about woodworking.

If you want to understand this beautiful art form, this is the class for you. Small group atmosphere is relaxed and supportive - no pressure to ‘keep up’ or ‘do it right’. Jill was there just when I needed her, with positivity… but not intrusive when I wanted to take my spoon in my own direction. Highly recommended.

Amazing 5 day course for teachers. Thorough experience for stage 4 and 5 timber TAS curriculum. After the 5 days I left feeling much more confident and safe working and teaching in a workshop. Thank you Gill and Bel!

Highly recommend the course! I had almost no experience working with wood, after the week with Woodchix I feel that I could comfortably deliver content to my classes. Well worth doing.

Gill from Woodchix was amazing, very knowledgeable in the school based landscape, and provided a range of practical skills that allowed me to teach Stage 4 and 5 wood technology with more confidence than I had before. This course is definitely one that I highly recommend with a range of skills that were taught throughout the week!
