Rules & Guidelines

 

 

     

    • We require an adult to be responsible for every child attending Small Poppies sessions. Parents can make arrangements with another Small Poppies parent to take responsibility for their child at any session.
    • Make-up sessions may be available by negotiation with the teacher.
    • We require parents to be actively involved with their children to get the most out of the session.
    • Members are requested to arrive ON TIME and stay for the whole session, AND HELP CLEAN UP AT THE END.
    • If your child has vomited or had diarrhea in the last 24 hours, or has a runny nose or cough, PLEASE keep them at home.
    • We encourage you to network with other parents and with Sue during the break and the activities parts of the session, however we ask that you are considerate when Sue is talking to the children as a group ie reading a story.
    • If any child is consistently obstructive, the parent may be asked to withdraw that child from the group.
    • Parents are asked not to discuss any child present unless the child's parent is also involved in the discussion.
    • Parents are encouraged to interact actively and positively with all the children present in the session.
    • Any problems with another child should first be discussed with the parent of the child concerned. If the problem cannot be resolved to the mutual satisfaction of those involved the matter should be raised with Sue. Failing this the issue can be taken to the next meeting of the Gifted Education Centre Board sub-committee.
    • If a child does not wish to participate in an activity they may play off to the side as long as this does not interfere with other children's learning.
    • All members of the group must respect each other and Small Poppies equipment. No physical or verbal abuse will be tolerated nor will any destructive behaviour.
    • If your child will not be attending the full term at Small Poppies (ie is beginning school, going on holiday) the MINIMUM fee is HALF of the FULL term fee.
    • Please do not bring anything containing peanuts to the session as some children have severe reactions to them. In some cases this can be life-threatening.
    • The safety of a child is the child's caregiver's responsibility. While Small Poppies provides a safe learning environment no responsibility will be taken for any injury sustained at Small Poppies.
    • If a non-enrolled child attends a session as a 'one-off' $10 should be paid to Sue at the session.
    • As a general rule fees are not refundable but in special circumstances a case may be made to the Gifted Education Centre Board of Trustees. Any refund of fees will be at the discretion of the Board, which meets twice per term.
    • The Gifted Education Centre Board of Trustees reserves the right to cancel sessions if insufficient children are enrolled in any class.
    • Please DO NOT take extra colpies of activity sheets without asking the teacher first - she may need them for the next session.
