CLASS POLICY AND UNIFORM - Uniforms are compulsory.

*Gold - Amber Ballet - Purple 'Helena' Leotard.

* Proper ballet shoes must be worn to class, slippers must not be worn as they are no good for your child's feet. Ballet elastics must also be sewn onto the shoes. Ballet shoes must be leather for all under 8s.

* Please arrive before your class is due to start, there are areas to get changed before coming into the hall if there are classes already running. Please do not get your child changed at the back of the hall if the class has already started, it is very disrupting for the teacher and other students.
*Children will be assessed in class and it is at the teachers' discretion as to when they are ready to move up to the next class.
BEHAVIOUR DURING CLASS
* Any kind of disruptive or bad attitude will not be tolerated during class and your child will be asked to sit out.
* Children are expected to remain respectful to their teachers and class mates at all times.
* If a child has to be asked to calm down, sit down or not run around more than 3 times they will be asked to sit out to take time to reflect their behaviour before continuing with the class. Children will always be asked to finish their lesson.
* Any student seen smoking or vaping in the class vicinity will be instantly dismissed from the school as we operate a zero tolerance policy on this.
Steppingstones is a fantastic, professional dance school with friendly and knowledagble teachers. My daughter has been going since the age of 3 and absolutely loves it. Starting with ballet, she now also enjoys tap and Acro. Highly recommend becoming part of the Steppingstones family.
