IMPORTANT UPDATE: New Temporary Covid Restrictions:

Dear Parents and Dancers,

As promised here is clarification on the restrictions imposed yesterday by the province of New Brunswick. Roxane had an opportunity to speak with the business navigators today so this information is current and accurate.

Restrictions:

- no child 11 or under is allowed to participate in sports (including dance) or extracurricular activities (vaccinated or not) for the next two weeks.

How does this affect us?

Since our scheduled Christmas break starts Sunday, December 19th, we are only affected for certain classes for the remainder of this week. (Please note classes will resume with the start of school on January 10th, 2022). Regular monthly payments for December and January are the same as any other month as we have already factored out Christmas break from your yearly cost and evenly divided across the 10 months we dance. In addition, there is no need to re-register as when you register in September you are registering for the season which includes September - the end of school in June.

Will we be making classes up for missed classes due to this new covid restriction?

We allow (and have already been factored out of your yearly cost for classes) two snow days. (We rarely use snow days), so if two snow days are not used for your particular class, the missed class this week (for some classes) would not be made up as it will count as a "snow day".

If my child is in an 11 & over class but is not yet 12, are we still allowed to attend class?

No, even though the 11 & over classes will remain open (because the majority of the dancers are 12 or over) we are not allowed to have any dancers who are 11 or under dancing during this restriction.

List of classes that will continue as scheduled this week:

Tuesday:

- Acro & Beginner Tumbling 11 & Over, 6:30 - 7:30

- Team Scorch 7:00 - 9:00

- Competitive Tap 6:30 - 7:30

Again, if your child is in any of these classes above, but they are not 12, they are not allowed to attend this week due to the restrictions.

In addition please note, children 12 and over are permitted to continue with privates.
