Caregivers Handbook
January 2010
Welcome
Welcome to Impact Dance and Stage School (2004) Limited. My
name is Mandy Roberts (Miss Mandy), the sole director of Impact.
This information booklet is designed to enable new students at the
school to gain a clearer understanding of what to expect throughout
their „Impact‟ journey.
Notice Board
There is a notice board in the green room that we use extensively to
keep students and caregivers up to date with information. Please
read it at least weekly. There is also a notice board under the
balcony outside the main entrance, OR you can check website

Classes
Attendance
Attendance at each scheduled class is highly recommended, to
ensure students gain confidence in the work being presented.
Tutors will also encourage regular short practices at home
throughout the week, which will ensure adequate progress is made.
If a student misses two classes in a row without notifying Impact
they will be withdrawn from the school.
Numbers
Class numbers will be limited to ensure that each student gets the
attention required to develop their skills. However, some classes
may be larger than others according to age group.
Rules
Caregivers and siblings may watch classes, however any person
creating distraction or noise will be asked to leave the studio and
wait in the green room where tea, coffee, and afternoon snacks
are available for purchase..
Disruptive students may be asked to leave the class. If this
occurs they may rejoin the class the following week.
No dangly jewellery is to be worn to classes at any time.
Practice Music
Exam Music is available for practice at home. You can purchase
these from the Shop for $5.00. If you would like dance music you
need to provide a blank CD with your name and class name on it
together with the $5.00 fee required.
Payment of Fees
Fees are strictly payable in advance, and are due on the first lesson
of each new term.
