WEEKLY TERM CLASSES

Generally Term bookings will open 2 weeks prior to the end of each term. We offer places to our exisiting artists first and then release new places to new families 2 weeks prior to the term ending (4 weeks prior to the start of the new term). For End Of Year, Term 1 bookings will generally open early to mid December for the new year.

All enrolments are made online: • Select your child’s age group • Choose the program and day • Click Book Now (takes you to an overview of the course dates etc) • Click Book Now again • Fill out the enrolment details in the form.

Mid-term enrolments and trial classes are welcome (just select your start date in the booking form and the pro rata fee will adjust accordingly). Please note: • A minimum of 4 artists is required for a class to run • Timetables may change, and classes can be added based on demand Waitlist: The website shows how many spots are available.

Cancellations, Refunds & Transfers for Art Classes & Holiday Workshops If you cancel or miss a class, refunds or credits will not be available. In the event that we cancel, artists will be notified via text message or email and entitled to a full refund or credit. The following can be applied prior to the session commencing (please get in touch via our contact page): TINY ARTISTS PROGRAM: Transfer to another participant or alternative day if there are places available. 24 hour or more notification is required. Transfer is to be completed within 3 weeks of the original booking. TERM BOOKED CLASSES: You can nominate to receive ONE of the following options: 1) An ART pack issued at the end of the term OR 2) A make up class will be offered in the last week of the term: Term 1: THURSDAY 2nd April 4:15-5:45 OR 3) A make up classes if the same teacher and project is being worked on. We have various teachers and each group has their own projects, so doing a make up class in a different group is not viable. 4) The single class value goes towards one of our HALF DAY or FULL DAY holiday booking, must be used at the adjacent Holiday Program, and the balance of the workshop is to be paid prior to end of term. HOLIDAY WORKSHOPS: Transfer to another participant or alternative day if there are places available. 24 hours or more notification is required.

We do have art smocks but please DRESS FOR ART (not in your best clothes). We will not be held liable for stained clothes.

For our Tiny & Kinder Artist program we offer casual classes. For all other programs we offer a paid 2 consecutive week class trial period. Why two classes? The first class may be filled with nerves and not knowing anyone or the teacher, so best to give it two classes so you can settle into the space, meet the people and get a better feeling for our class structure. Then, if you then wish to sign up to the term, we can work out the pro rata term fee and go from there. How do I do this? • Same was as an enrolment (see FAQ How do I enrol if unsure) • At the bottom of the enrolment form, click on the "Select Price Option" drop down link • Scroll down to select the "Consecutive 2 week trial" price option • Complete the booking. If you decided to continue on with your booking past the trial period, you do not need to complete the enrolment again, we will update the booking and issue you an invoice or pay link for the pro rata fee. We look forward to sharing the art fun.

You are welcome to join even after the term has started, provided we still have a place in the class you are after. Please visit our how to enrol question as mid term booking are made the same way.

We understand life is busy so we offer some CASUAL bookings in some of our Programs. Casual places are subject to term based bookings. All casual classes must be pre-booked and payment made prior to the beginning of class. If you are unsure if a class is casual or not, please get in touch via email and we can help you out.

Regular routines and faces are key factors in establishing trust with our little ones. Each child adapts differently to a new environment. From my knowledge as a teacher, a parent myself, and feedback from parents, it generally takes 3-4 weeks for a toodler and our younger primary aged children to settle in. It is best not to force your younger child to participate. Discuss what will happen, meet and greet the teacher/s and let them know the situation. For our under 5's, sit behind them or with them and be part of the creating process. For our older students in our drop off programs, please get in touch via email as we Child Health and Safety Guidelines we must adhere to.

If you have two or more budding artists, please get in touch for the family discount. Some programs may be excluded from discounts.

Each program will outline if a parental attendance is required. Most school aged programs are drop off. All artists attending the TINY ARTISTS Programs must be accompanied by a parent/carer. ​

PRIMARY SCHOOL - HIGH SCHOOL - KINDER ART WORKSHOPS All classes are strictly drop-off only due to child safety laws, unless it is stated that ADULTS WELCOME TO JOIN. This means adults are welcome to participate in the workshop too with their child/ren. Adults are charged at student prices. Again, adults can only stay where it is stipulated on the Timetable and all adults need to pay too. If you need to stay for some reason for a workshop that does not state ADULTS WELCOME TO JOIN, you must get in contact with Rachael to discuss as there are child safety laws we must follow. UNDER 5 YEARS (TINY ARTISTS) A parent or guardian MUST accompany any child/ren booked in for our Tiny Artist program. Your child may like to create independently or with you so your active involvement may be required. Enjoy creating side by side!!
