SCHOOL RULES

• Students need to be collected immediately after class. Parents running late should phone before the class has ended. Students not collected after class will wait at the Reception Desk until their parent/carer arrives.
• Class times include up to a 5-minute window for arrivals and dismissals. This means that the first and last few minutes of class involve students being marked on the roll or dismissed to their parents.
• Students in the Pre-Intermediate level and younger should be collected by their parent/carer from reception or the class dismissal point. Students in the Intermediate level who have parental permission to walk down to the car park should wait at Reception until their parent/carer arrives in the car park. No student should wait alone in the car park.
• Students are within the responsibility of their parents before and after class. Teacher supervision extends only to students in class.
• Parents should ensure that when they drop off their child, that their child proceeds to class and has their name marked off the roll. Caper cannot be held accountable for students who truant.
• Students having a break between classes should remain in the reception area during that time. Students should not leave the studio premises whilst on a break. High School students may walk downstairs to Domino’s unattended with parental permission.
• For pre-school age students, parents/carers are to stay on site for the duration of their child's class.
• Food containing nuts cannot be brought into the studio or to Caper events by a parent, student or sibling.
• Parents, students and siblings are not permitted inside the dance studio unless accompanied by Caper staff.

TEACHER LIAISON
• Caper students and their parents are not to communicate with Caper employees via social media, email, phone or other forms of communication. This is a child safety measure designed to protect our students and staff.
• If advice or feedback from a teacher is sought, please contact the Caper office to arrange an appropriate meeting time. Teachers should not be disrupted during class, student arrivals and student dismissals as their attention needs to be with the students.
