Terms and Conditions for Participants

By enrolling and paying for a Minim group class, participants and their parents or guardians agree to the following terms.

1. Payment

Term fees are paid in full before the term begins, by credit card or bank transfer through our contactless payment options. Places are confirmed only once payment has been received. Families joining mid term will be invoiced on a pro rated basis.

2. Substitute Teachers

In the event the lead teacher is absent, a substitute teacher may take the class. All substitute teachers hold music qualifications approved by Minim and are briefed on the class curriculum.

3. Absences and Make Up Classes

If your child is unable to attend a class, please notify us by the morning of the class by filling in our absentee form. Notifications received on time may be eligible for a make up class, subject to availability. Late notifications may not be eligible for a make up.

Make up classes are offered at Minim's discretion and cannot be carried over to the following term.

4. Refunds

Refunds are offered only in the case of an unforeseen school closure or event that causes Minim to cancel a class, and where no make up can be arranged. Any refunds will be processed by bank transfer at the end of the school year, between June and August.

Refunds are not offered for participant absence, change of mind, or scheduling conflicts on the family's side.

5. Teacher or Class Cancellation by Minim

In the rare event that Minim cancels a class entirely, affected families will be offered either a make up class or a credit toward a future term.

6. Pick Up and Drop Off

Parents and guardians are responsible for ensuring their child is dropped off and picked up on time, as stated in the lesson schedule. Minim is not responsible for supervision of children outside of class hours. Repeated late pick ups may incur a supervision fee.

7. Safety and Liability

Minim instructors take every reasonable precaution to ensure the safety of every participant during class. Parents and guardians agree that Minim and its instructors are not liable for any damage, injury, or illness sustained during classes, except where caused by gross negligence on the part of Minim.

Parents and guardians are responsible for informing Minim of any allergies, medical conditions, or special needs relevant to their child's participation.

8. Personal Belongings and Instruments

Minim is not responsible for loss of or damage to personal belongings, including instruments, brought to class.

9. Behavior

Minim classes are community spaces built on kindness and respect. Minim reserves the right to remove any participant whose behavior repeatedly disrupts the class or affects the safety and wellbeing of others.

10. Image Rights

Minim may use photos, videos, and other media of participants taken during classes and events in publicity materials such as our website, social media, and print materials. No participant will be named in such materials. If you prefer your child not to be featured, please notify us in writing at contact@minim.family at the time of enrollment or at any point during the term.

11. Changes to These Terms

Minim may update these terms from time to time. The current version will always be available on our website at minim.family.
