DurationDescription
Love a piece of clothing but can't find a pattern? Bring along clothes you want to take patterns off and learn some useful tips and sizing rules. You'll make a pattern for at least one garment and get help on how to get going with others.
A list of what else to bring will be sent out when course numbers are confirmed. Tea and coffee provided but bring your lunch.
By the end of the workshop, you'll be able to:
• Use techniques to reproduce a paper copy of an existing garment
• Demonstrate how to include seam allowances
• Demonstrate how to accommodate facings and hems in construction
• Reproduce a pattern of a garment of your choice

Night school, evening classes, adult community education (ACE) – whatever you call it, people coming to their local secondary school after hours to learn together is a New Zealand tradition. Maybe they’re returning to learning, want to gain new skills and confidence, meet new people, keep mentally active, follow a particular passion or become more involved in their community – there are lots of reasons why people want to continue to learn. In this digital age, there’s a wide range of opportunities available for on-going study but getting together with a group of like-minded people to learn something new is hard to beat.
The Wellington High School Community Education Centre (CEC) is always looking for people with great skills to share their knowledge and experience with others and need talented, empathetic and inspirational tutors to deliver courses for adults and whanau. The following information will tell you more about the processes for setting up courses within our programme and what’s involved in being a tutor at the CEC.
