Cancellation Policy

If an Arts4Tots (AFT) parent cancels their child’s registration before September 1, one month’s class fees are kept as well as the membership and administration fees, which are non-refundable.

If an AFT parent withdraws their child from class after September 1, the class fees for the current month and the next month will be kept. The membership and administration fees are non-refundable – this allows us to fill the child’s spot after the child withdraws.

If an AFT parent withdraws their child from the class later into the year, the payments and refunds will be determined by the SAC staff.

Communication

Communication with AFT parents is a priority within the program and open communication between parents and the directors/SAC staff is encouraged. Parents need to check their email regularly as much of the communication happens via email.

Social Media

Arts4Tots has a Facebook and Instagram page where activities are posted on a regular basis by the Directors. Only children who have signed the release waiver are included in photos on these pages.

Snacks

Small, nutritious snacks and drinks should be sent for snack time. AFT provides 10 minutes for eating. Directors must be notified upon registration of any allergies. No peanuts or nuts are allowed in classroom.

Safety

For the safety of the students, the AFT room door is locked daily, and parents/guardians should knock to enter.

Student Illness

Students should remain at home if they are sick. If they become sick at the Centre, parents/guardians will be responsible for picking them up.

Your child’s SAFETY & WELL BEING are our number one concerns.  As we have continued to do over the past couple of years, we may be making changes to the AFT program processes and systems to ensure we are compliant with any Health Regulations that come out regarding our preschool program.

At this time, here are our recommendations:

• Parents can drop off their children at the classroom door, however we ask that parents do not come into the classroom at this time
• Cleaning hands will continue to be standard practice during each session
• Parents are asked not to stay in the Centre during their child’s session

AFT follows the Hanover School Division Calendar for all weather closures as well as school breaks (this includes Christmas Break and Spring Break) but not PD days.  However, the Arts4Tots Program does not follow HSD for closures based on Public Health Orders.  We are a Public Recreation Centre and will follow restrictions that pertain to that.  If we are required to close our Centre, we will notify you as soon as possible.
