Free Trial Class
Please note free trial lessons are not offered in the first week of a new term.
- Term 3 free trial classes offered between Monday July 15th to Saturday September 7th
- Term 4 free trial classes offered between Monday October 14th and Saturday November 30th
A free trial booking does not reserve a place in a class for any other date than your one booked lesson, and does not guarantee we have a place available in your chosen class day / time / age group for the term. Thank you for your understanding.
We would love to invite you to come along and attend a free trial class in one of our term length programs. To book in for a trial lesson, please phone or email our office and our team will allocate a day and time for you to come along and try out one lesson. All class times, prices and unit descriptions can be found on our individual class pages.
Please read below for some of our most frequently asked questions, they might help you decide which class is best suited for your child.
- Which classes can I attend a free trial lesson for? We offer free trial lessons in any of our term length programs, Kindermusik, Fox Blocks STEM , or Art Classes. Free trial lessons are not available in our school holiday workshop program.
- What week of term can I book a free trial lesson in? Free trial lessons are offered from the second week of any term. We do not offer any free trial lessons in the first week of a new term as this is when all term home resources are allocated / handed out to our enrolled students.
- I am interested in more than one program (e.g. Art and Kindermusik), can I book a trial lesson in more than one class? Absolutely! We would love to to find your child's best fit so many students try out multiple classes.
- My child is outside the age range listed on your site for the class we wish to trial, can we still book a lesson for them? We do not offer 'out of age' enrolments' for any students at Flying Fox Studios. For students under school age we offer a 4 week grace period for kids close to our age cut off. All school age students can only attend a class in the grade they are currently attending.
- I would like to watch the class my child is attending, can I sit in on the lesson? At Flying Fox Studios, part of our child safety policy covers children attending classes with adults in the classroom (other than Flying Fox Studios staff). For this reason, adults are able to attend the lesson with their child in our Kindermusik Village (0-18 months), Kindermusik Our Time (18 months to 3.5 years) Scribblers Art (2 to 4 years) Fox Blocks B.Blocks (2.5 to 4 years) only. Please reach out to our staff if you have further questions about this, or unique circumstances for your child outside these listed classes.
- My child may not participate, is that ok? Of course! We are all often anxious when trying new things and being a little unsure about joining a new group of people is perfectly understandable. Young children may run laps of the classroom, but don't stress... we have all been there! Older children may be anxious about joining a class of students they don't know (and who already may know each other). As a parent, you may even be a little unsure yourself about where to go, what to do etc. Rest assured, all our staff are happy to help out, help students feel comfortable in class, and help adults feel relaxed in our space.
- The age group I am interested is fully booked, can I still come to a trial lesson? Yes, you can! Some of our classes are in high demand, and are often fully booked shortly after a new enrolment period opens. In all our classes we reserve two spots for current students to book as a make up lesson, or for new students to book for a free trial class. If you are interested in coming along to one of our fully booked age groups, please reach out as we may be still able to offer a lesson.
- Does a trial lesson booking guarantee a spot in that class for the term? No, a free trial booking does not reserve a place in class for any other date than your booked lesson, and does not guarantee we have a place reserved for your child in class for the term.
- If my child enjoys the lesson, can we join partway through the term? Of course! So long as there is still a term spot still available in the class, then our fees will be adjusted on a pro rata basis. We don't have a membership fee, so you only pay for the lessons remaining in your unit.
