The session is koha donation, with donations going towards supporting the Wellington Ballet Theatre.

We’ll be working from 2–4 pm. Please arrive a little early to settle in and set yourself up. We’ll take a short kaputī (cup of tea) break halfway through.

A big thank you to Almighty Sparkling Water for providing tasty inu (drinks) for our sessions.
