New members will receive this account a few days before the Course is set to start.
Make-Up Class: If you have to miss a class, one make-up session is permitted per course using our one-hour drop-in online clubs. We can organize one for you in the 2nd half of the term (to allow time to collect students for a viable class). Make-up classes cannot carry over to a new Term.
Discount: 10% Sibling discounts are accounted for automatically by the system if purchased in the same transaction. No manual discounts will be considered.
