Please keep your child at home if they are too sick to attend, or if they have an airborne illness and are coughing.
If your child is sick and can no longer attend the workshop, please email [email protected] immediately so that we can notify the Head Coach.

 

Parents/guardians must arrange for children to be dropped off and picked up from the venue at the designated times. If there is any change or delay to your pick-up arrangements, please notify the program facilitator as soon as possible by calling 1300 463 513.
 
It’s essential that you provide up-to-date pick-up information in the ‘Additional Notes’ section of the online registration form. This includes the full name and phone number of any person (other than yourself) who may be collecting your child.
 
In case of an emergency, please also ensure that you list an alternative emergency contact name and number that is different from your own. This helps us ensure the safety and wellbeing of all children in our care.

Yes, early pickups can be arranged. If you need to collect your child before the end of class, please inform the StarTime Coach or contact us in advance. Upon arrival, you will need to sign your child out for safety and record-keeping purposes.

It is at least a ratio of 1:15 children per educator. 

 

In line with the Office of the Children’s Guardian, we generally do not allow adults to remain in the room during workshops unless they are StarTime-trained staff or have a verified and current Working With Children Check (WWCC).
 
However, we understand that some children—especially younger ones—may need extra support settling in. In special circumstances, if a parent holds a current WWCC and has concerns, they may stay during the warm-up games to help their child feel comfortable. After that, we kindly ask all parents to leave the room, as having adults present throughout the session can compromise the focus and experience for all participants.
 
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in helping us create a safe and engaging environment for all children.

Please collect your child promptly from the drama room upstairs. Alternatively the StarTime Coach will take your child back to OSHC after class.

Your child should wear comfortable clothing that allows them to move freely during drama activities. Closed-toe shoes are required for safety. School uniforms are fine, but if they prefer to change into something more flexible, they are welcome to do so before class.

  • A water bottle to stay hydrated.
  • A snack if they need extra energy after school, but please ensure it is nut-free to avoid allergy risks.

Anything which is left behind by children will be left at the venue. Our StarTime coaches are instructed not to take any lost property with them.

 

1. Disclosing Medical or Behavioural Conditions

When registering, please disclose any medical or behavioural conditions in the ‘Additional Information’ field. This helps us ensure we have the appropriate staff and resources to safely manage all children in our care. If you’re unsure about what to disclose, we encourage you to share, and we will contact you for further information if needed.

2. Safety and Precautions

  • Appropriate safety precautions and instructions are provided at the start of each program to ensure all children understand how to stay safe during the workshop.
  • Our staff are dedicated to creating a safe and secure environment for all participants.

3. If Your Child Becomes Unwell

If your child becomes unwell during the workshop, our program staff will contact you to arrange for an immediate pick-up. Parents/Guardians must provide up-to-date emergency contact information, and the named emergency contact must be available to pick up the child at short notice.

4. Anaphylaxis and Allergy Management

We take anaphylaxis and allergies seriously:

  • Any child requiring an EpiPen must bring it to the workshop, as per the ASCIA Guidelines.
  • Please hand the EpiPen to one of our staff members upon arrival at sign-in.
  • Ensure all relevant allergy information is provided during registration so we can be fully prepared to manage your child’s needs.

5. Emergency Procedures

In the event of an emergency, our facilitators are trained to:

  • Safely evacuate all children from the building.
  • Follow safety protocols to ensure every child is accounted for and protected.
  • Cancellations made more than 7 days before the start of the term will receive a full refund.
  • Cancellations made less than 7 days before the term begins or during the term are non-refundable.
  • Exceptions may apply in the case of medical or exceptional circumstances. Please contact us directly to discuss your situation.
