Floristry

Pupils learn the art of floristry and have fun being creative. This course is for pupils who enjoy working with flowers and would like to learn how to make arrangements, bouquets and decorative displays for all occasions.

For pupils who have never worked with flowers before and would like learn, it can be very rewarding and quite therapeutic.

Are you creative? Would you like to learn how to be more creative?

All the traditional favourites will be included as well as giving you the option to create ideas of your own.

We will mostly be working with artificial flowers and materials but we will also work with some fresh flowers and foliage.
