ENROLMENTS FOR 2020

If you are interested in joining our studio next year, please email us and we will add your email address to our database to send you the 2020 information and enrolment pack once it is available mid-late January.

​

ENROLLING IN 2020

Simply complete your enrolment form in full and email to lamuseaccounts@yahoo.co.nz. Completed forms can also be dropped in to the studio during open hours and placed in our foyer letterbox. You can type directly onto the PDF, or print and scan/photograph. Printed forms are available at the studio if needed.

For advice on which grade or level is suitable, please contact Gina or Hana or send us an email, we'll be happy to help out. If there are any issues with your class choice or a class if at capacity we will contact you.

Once the enrolment is received, we'll confirm your class space and email through an invoice with payment details.

​

Existing students must re-enrol at the beginning of each new year and enrolment carries over to each term for the full year, unless we are notified you will not be returning. There is no need to re-enrol each term.

​

ENROLMENT OPEN DAYS
At the beginning of each year we hold enrolment open days for any students to come to the studio, meet our teachers and view the studio space and enrol in person.

Enrolment packs are emailed to previous students and anyone interested in enrolling in January each year. If you wish to be included on our enrolment database please email

MID TERM/MID YEAR ENROLMENTS
We welcome new students throughout terms 1, 2 for exam levels, and 3 for non-exam levels only, if there is space. There are also close out periods close to exams times. Enrolments are closed in term 4 and no new students accepted. The start of the year is the best time to join to avoid missing learning the syllabus work.

Term fees are adjusted according to when a student begins mid term.

You are welcome to view a class you are interested in, however we do not offer trial classes. A student can only participate in a class once enrolment has been completed.  

Classes are capped and enrolments are based on first come-first served. A wait list will be started if a class is full.
