| a-b-c-dabra First Steps |
Please wait outside the class. From our teaching experience at this age we believe children can concentrate better when they do not have an audience. However if your child feels anxious being left we are happy to have you sit in until they feel more confident in the class |

Do I need to provide a drink?
Yes please, a small bottle of water or weak squash is sufficient (no fizzy drinks or pure fruit juices in the classes please). We think it is important children learn about staying hydrated, especially in hot weather. However we believe children can last 40 mins without needing to drink every few minutes.
Your child's teacher will give time for a water break if necessary (on hot days) and ideally your child will drink their water at the end of the class. |
How much do the classes cost?
At present the cost of each class is determined by you. You should pay for the value you and your child get from each class. |
Do I have to commit to classes long term?
Currently you can turn up for classes on a week-by-week basis with no further commitment. For maximum benefit from the programmes we recommend weekly attendance. Weekly attendance helps keep things fresh in children's minds. |
