Students will develop a solid understanding of process from concept, execution to completion.

TERM FEES
The term runs for 9 weeks during Qld state school terms.
The term fee is $500, payable in full at time of booking in order to secure a space. Advance booking is required as places are strictly limited and fill quickly.
Due to the popularity of our Youth Studio, returning students are invited to re-enrol first before spaces are opened for new students on the waitlist. *Returning student places must kindly be paid for in full by the due date on the invoice, unfortunately failure to do so will see your child’s place offered to new students. 
Parents are welcome to enrol with their child for the Youth Studio programs, should you wish to join in the fun. We also encourage you to arrive early when collecting your child, from time to time, so as to provide you with a progress update. We are committed to your child’s success and open, regular communication ensures this.
MATERIALS
It is a requirement that students have their own materials and tools for use in the studio and at home. This instils a sense of responsibility and facilitates further practice outside of the studio.
We've shopped around for you and found the best value without compromising quality (plus the convenience of home delivery). Should you choose to purchase elsewhere, please do not accept substitute products as these are all too often inappropriate.
PLEASE NOTE: As this is a date specific term program there are no ‘make-up’ sessions or credits for missed classes, irrespective of reason for absence. Please ensure consistent attendance in order to maintain momentum and maximise results.
In the unlikely event that a class is cancelled by the studio (eg. extreme weather), a make up session will be arranged before the following term.
