Fees Terms & Conditions

I understand that:

• Twirling Tutu's enrolments are annual, therefore I am required to pay each term fees in full. In the result of withdrawing from our program I agree that  if I do not notify Twirling Tutu's in writing of my child / children's withdrawal prior to the commencement of a new dance term I am responsible for the full term fees. 

• Enrolled students are committed to our end of year concert and the related rehearsals.

• All fees must be paid in advance and all missed classes must be paid for. Full term fees are due before Friday, Week 1  of each dance term. Any fees received on or after Monday, Week 2 of Term will incur a $25 late fee unless a payment plan was arranged prior to the due date.

• Twirling Tutu's only operates during school terms and is closed during on public holidays and on days where hall space is unavailable (e.g. elections or school use). If classes are missed due to scheduling changes make up classes will be arranged and communicated via email. 

• All fees are based on a 9 week Term (excluding Term 4). Fees may be subject to change at any time.

• Refunds and/or discounts are not accessible or applicable in relation to my child’s tuition if classes are missed and/or participation ceases. 

• Fees are non-transferable between dance terms or students.

• If fees are not paid in full, my child will be restricted from participating in Twirling Tutu's classes, rehearsals and performances/concerts until the outstanding amount is paid.

• Although Twirling Tutu's will attempt to minimise any risk of personal injury  within practical boundaries, accidents do happen and all physical activities carry the risk of personal injury. I understand that there is an inherent risk of personal injury in physical activities that will be undertaken as part of this program. I acknowledge that by allowing my child to participate in a class, no responsibility or liability for either personal injury or financial/property damage in any way whatsoever arising directly or indirectly from any activity undertaken at or on behalf of Twirling Tutu's by myself/my child shall be accepted by Twirling Tutu's or it’s employees or agents.
