One day classes offer the perfect opportunity to enjoy the Jane Packer experience. These classes are ideal as an introduction to the world of floristry. The classes are fun and full of ideas in the inspiring surroundings of the Jane Packer life style store.

All students are entitled to a 10% discount on all purchases made from the store on the day (except books). Whether you have a particular area of interest or just fancy an enjoyable day out we have a number of classes that will teach you a skill you can use time and time again.

The classes begin at 10 am and finish at 4 pm with an hour break for lunch (lunch not included). Tutors will carefully demonstrate, step by step, construction methods using a selection of stunning blooms. The day will normally include at least two designs for you to take home. We advise you to wear comfortable shoes and bring a camera (sorry no video cameras).
