Fee Schedule and Cancellation Policy 

Each program differs in its content and duration. All of our programs require full payment upfront, prior to the commencement date of the program.

 

All of our programs run alongside the school term, hence we will be starting the programs on the first or second week of each term. Below is a breakdown of our group program fees:

  • 4-week program = $440

  • 6-week program = $660

  • 8-week program = $880

($100 per session)

 

Upon registering interest (see below) and securing a spot in a program, our admin staff will be in contact to secure payment for the entire program at that time. Should you cancel your spot in the program 1 week (7 days) before the commencement date of the program, this payment will be held as it is unlikely that this spot will be filled.
