Terms of Use
Students and their families
The Terms & Conditions are a simple outline of various procedures and expectations of the
Student and their Guardian. A representative from each family is required to sign when they join
us to indicate they will abide by the Terms & Conditions.
➢ Karen Margaret Studios is a happy place where everyone is a star!
➢ A current and up to date enrolment form must be completed and signed.
➢ Students will be placed in a class in accordance with their age and experience.
➢ Please make sure you read all your newsletters and please follow us on Facebook or Instagram to
keep updated on events, dates and auditions.
➢ All fees must be paid by the due date or a late fee will apply. Unpaid fees will be placed in the hands
of a debt collection agency.
➢ Students are charged per term with 4 terms in the year. There are no credits or refunds for missed
classes or withdrawal from classes.
➢ Fees will be invoiced via email with the preferred method of payment being direct deposit.
➢ All students are expected to perform in our annual End of Year Concert.
➢ A nominal compulsory concert fee is due in third term which goes towards concert accessories. If a
student decides to leave during fourth term, this fee is not refundable and goes towards your
withdrawal fee.
➢ All students must be appropriately attired. All students are required to purchase and wear the Karen
Margaret Studios T-Shirt. With this it is preferred that you wear black jazz pants, leggings or shorts.
➢ The correct footwear is compulsory. Pink ballet shoes for Tiny Tots and tan jazz shoes for all other
students and all boys. Senior Dancers may also require tan chorus shoes and toe thongs.
➢ Long Hair must be tied back.
➢ All Students must report to their teacher upon arrival.
➢ Water bottles only are permitted in class.
➢ Students with extreme allergies and require an epi pen must have a parent/guardian present with
them at all times.
➢ No liability will be taken for a physical injury caused during a Karen Margaret Studio event. All
classes can involve a small risk of personnel injury. Whilst all reasonable care is taken during
classes, Karen Margaret Studios will not be responsible for injury incurred.
➢ Please make sure that you are physically and mentally fit and please be aware of your own personnel
safety.
➢ Parents are not permitted to watch classes other than the first free trial class. We have plenty of
waiting areas available and we feel that the children gain more from their class if only the teacher
and other students are present. Parents will be invited to observe classes from time to time.
➢ Students and their families are expected to leave the premises clean and tidy.
➢ Students are expected to listen to their teacher and follow instructions to the best of their ability.
➢ Students must be supervised by parent or guardian until the commencement of class.
➢ Students must stay with the class group at all times and seek permission to leave.
➢ Students must go to the toilet before class.
➢ Children must wait inside the premises to be picked up, not in the car park.
➢ Items of value should not be brought or worn to class. Karen Margaret Studios will not be
responsible for any items that go missing or break.
➢ Covid safe procedures must be adhered to in accordance with government guidelines.
➢ Always bring a smile to class and leave with a bigger one.
We hope all students enjoy and have fun.
