To ensure an accurate headcount for capacity and snacks, registering online in advance or calling us at 204.346.1077 is required. This helps us prepare for the workshop and make necessary arrangements. If you haven't already, please sign up for an account with us at https://reg.sac-online.ca/.

You can register multiple children in the same age group for a workshop, allowing them to attend together. For instance, if you have children aged 3 and 4, they can both be registered for the same age category workshop to attend at the same time. If your children belong to different age groups, please ensure you register them according to their respective age categories. You would then attend seperate workshops with them.

Please note that due to space capacity constraints, only one parent or guardian can accompany the children at a time.

If you need to withdraw from the workshop, we kindly request that you notify us in advance. This courtesy allows us to inform waitlisted participants that a spot has become available, ensuring they have ample time to make necessary arrangements.
