Lesson Fees are payable one term in advance and are due by the first lesson of each term. Accounts for each new term will be emailed at the end of the previous term. The payment of fees in advance ensures a student's place at the Studio each week and allows 100% of the lesson time to be devoted to teaching.
The length of the term is dependent on the day the student attends for lessons and may include 9, 10 or 11 weeks depending on school and public holidays. The school term, as set by the New South Wales State Education Department, is taken into account when allocating lesson times for the year.
Accounts will include fees for the term, any music purchased and any examinations or competitions booked. Fees may be paid by cash or direct deposit.
