Attendance & Make-Up Classes

Regular attendance ensures progress, consistency, and belonging.
Missed classes may be made up in a suitable class (subject to availability).
Please notify the studio of absences as soon as possible.
Excessive absences may affect participation in performances.

Studio Etiquette & Dress Code

Uniforms are required after trial classes.
Why it matters: Uniforms create a sense of belonging and pride, help students focus, and ensure safety by allowing teachers to check posture and technique.
Hair should be tied back neatly, and no jewellery is to be worn.
Students are expected to be kind, positive, and arrive on time, ready to learn.
Parents are welcome in designated waiting areas but asked to avoid entering the teaching space during class.
A gentle, supportive discipline policy is in place to maintain a joyful, safe environment for all.

Concerts & Performances

Performances give students the chance to celebrate their growth and shine with confidence.
Participation is encouraged — early commitment helps us organise costumes and routines.
Performance details and rehearsal schedules will be shared well in advance.
Concert fees may apply for costumes, venue hire, and production.

Communication

All updates are communicated via Band.
Parents are encouraged to stay connected and check messages regularly.
Questions or concerns? Always feel welcome to chat with your teacher or contact us directly.

Safety & Child Protection

MNM Creating and Performing is a Child Safe studio.
All staff hold current Working With Children Checks and uphold nurturing, positive teaching practices.
All injuries or incidents are documented and parents notified.
Students are supervised at all times while in class.

Pick-Up & Drop-Off

Students should arrive no earlier than 10 minutes before class.
Please collect students promptly at the end of class.
MNM is not responsible for students outside of class times.

Photos, Videos & Social Media

Photos and short videos may be taken during classes or performances for promotional and community-sharing purposes.
Parents are asked to provide or decline consent upon enrolment.
Out of care for the safety and privacy of students, filming and photography by families is not to be shared on any social media platforms. This is to protect students who may be in foster care or have legally protected identities for their safety.
Any content shared publicly must be approved by the studio in advance.

Thank you for taking the time to read through these nurturing, easy-to-follow guidelines.

Together, let’s make MNM Creating and Performing a joyful, simple, and beautiful place for every child to grow, belong, and shine.
