FAQs

The following are the top most frequently asked questions.

Can I Leave My Child At Class?

At Spinning Gumnuts: one parent/carer per child stays and dances with their child.
Other classes:
You’re free to go and run errands. We are encouraging parents to
drop and go if possible. If this doesn’t suit your child, please contact us before your first class.

Can My Child Join In At Any Time?

Your child is welcome to trial a class in the first two weeks of our 10 week term.
Please contact the Gumnut Dance team to book your child into a trial class or enrol
online.
Please note you must pay the full fees for the term, even if you start late. We offer two
catch up classes per term for those missed.

Does Gumnut Dance Run End Of Year Concerts?

There is no end-of-year concert for our youngest dancers (Spinning to Snow 2), instead, the last class of each term is a presentation class where family are invited to watch.

Our students in Ribbon and above partake in an optional end-of-year showcase at a local theatre. This is a wonderful event with an emphisis on having fun! It encourages kids to work towards a goal as a team and is a fun opportunity to perform in a different environment.

Does It Matter If My Child Hasn’t Danced Before?

We welcome children of all levels of ability and it doesn’t matter if your child has little
or no dance experience. Our teachers work with each child to help them enjoy and
gain the most out of their classes.

What Does My Child Need For Class?

The dress code section of our welcome pack sets out what attire is needed for class.
Please bring a water bottle for your child, with their name clearly labelled.

Does Gumnut Dance Do Exams?

No!
