SIBLING AND PARENT ATTENDANCE

Weekday Morning Classes – Jitterbugs, Beebopper & Pianorama Junior (Kindy)

  • A parent/guardian must accompany and participate with the child during the lesson

  • Siblings may attend if necessary but will not be included in the class activities or given instruments/crayons. It is the parent’s responsibility to take the sibling out if they are crying or causing a distraction.

  • ISM programmes are aurally based and it is important that the students are able hear and concentrate at all times. Please do not take offense if your teacher asks you to take the sibling out of the class – they are prioritising the learning of the students in the class.

  • Parent/guardian attendance is optional.

  • Siblings may not attend.

PARENT CONSENT FOR USE OF IMAGES

Occasionally photos of students are included in the ISM Newsletter, Website and Facebook page. We do not include the name of your child or "tag"? them in the picture with the exception of the newsletter.

In order for your child’s image to be included in either of these areas, ISM Westcoast must have your permission on file while they participate in the music programmers at the school.

By accepting I grant to International School of Music – Westcoast, its representatives and employees the right to take photographs of me and my child. I authorise ISM Westcoast to use and publish in print and/or electronically.
