· 4 weeks notice in writing is required to withdraw a child from classes, otherwise you will be charged the full term's fees.

· We reserve the right to change fees/term dates/class times. However we aim to keep this minimal and inform parents of any changes as soon as possible.

We will always ensure that classes run at the scheduled times, however in the event of unforeseen circumstances beyond the control of the school which may cause the delay or cancellation of classes, the school or teacher is not liable. These include but are not limited to:

If classes are cancelled due to any of the above reasons, refunds cannot be made, however we will endevour to reschedule any classes missed if and when possible.
