ENROLMENT
- To reserve a place in a workshop, the signed and completed enrolment form must be submitted along with the first installment of tuition fee, the remaining to be paid on an equal monthly basis.
- Workshops will be confirmed by phone or email at least one week before the first class.
- Elephant Community Press reserves the right to cancel any workshop prior to confirmation.
- Fees must be paid by cash or cheque on or before the first class of each month.
- Late payments will be subject to a $50 charge.
- When a requested class is full, students will be placed on a waitlist. Priority is given to existing students.
- From our experience, some students in our group publishing classes need the extra guidance of a one-on-one session at our centre, dedicated to revising with their teacher. Parents will be notified if such a session is recommended by the teacher.
MAKE-UP CLASSES AND REFUNDS
- Any workshops cancelled by Elephant Community Press will be fully refunded.
If a student decides to withdraw from a workshop after enrolment, 30 days’ written notice is required for withdrawal from a workshop or payment of that month’s fees in lieu of notice - Make-up classes cannot be arranged for holiday workshops or for workshops held at school partners.
- Since class dates are set at the beginning of each term, only two absences per term are eligible for make-up classes with written notice at least one day in advance.
- Missed make-up classes cannot be rescheduled.
- If our available dates for make-up lessons do not match your child’s availability, we cannot guarantee a replacement class. Space available is on a first-come, first-served basis.
PUBLIC HOLIDAY AND BAD WEATHER ARRANGEMENTS
- No classes are held on public holidays.
- In line with EDB guidelines, morning classes will be cancelled if typhoon number 8, black or red rain signals are in place at 8:00am and afternoon classes will be cancelled if the typhoon number 8, black or red rain signals are in place at 12:00noon.
- For typhoon number 3 or amber rain signals, classes for kindergarten-age children are cancelled at our discretion. Please contact us to confirm classes at these times.
- We regret that we cannot schedule make-up classes for typhoon/rain signal closures.
