Missed classes

Accepted Answer

Missed Classes, Cancellations, Refund & TransfersAs a small studio, we carefully prepare materials and staff our sessions just for you! Because we keep our groups small and process-led, fees are non-refundable, and we are unable to offer refunds, credits, or catch-up sessions if you miss a class, workshop, or party.If We Cancel: If we ever have to cancel a session, we’ve got you covered with a full refund, credit, or alternative option.

Question 5

Are there artsmocks?

Accepted Answer

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

Question 6

Can I trial the class first?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 9

Tips For Settling In

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 10

Family Discount

Accepted Answer

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

Question 11

Parent Attendance

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 13

Do I have to stay? Can I stay?

Accepted Answer

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!!
