Protocol - La Scala, Oldfield Park - Primary Ballet / Tap
PLEASE DO NOT BRING YOUR CHILD TO CLASS IF THEY HAVE A TEMPERATURE OR ARE FEELING UNWELL.
PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE COMPLETED THE ONLINE REGISTRATION FORM AS YOUR CHILD WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ATTEND CLASS WITHOUT THIS. WE NEED TO ENSURE WE HAVE ACCESSIBLE, UP-TO-DATE CONTACT INFORMATION.
- Parents and children to bring their child through the foyer at the front of The Co-op. This door says “please use side door” but that is for Co-op customers, this door is open to us. Please wait in the foyer and adhere to social distancing, including the use of facemarks (for adults) whilst inside the building. Children to be dressed ready to dance. Please keep hold of their jumpers and outdoor shoes when we come to get them. They can come upstairs in their tap shoes.
- The teacher will come down a little before class to let you know we are ready and you can make your way up. Please arrive for class promptly.
- Once upstairs the teacher will take the children through to studio 2 and you can leave via the fire escape near the kitchen and ladies toilets. This will take you back down to the foyer.
- Ballet shoes must be brought in in a small bag which they may bring in to class with them along with their water bottle if they want/need one. CAN THEY PLEASE HAVE THEIR TAP SHOES ON. PLEASE REMOVE TAP LACES UNLESS THEY ARE ABLE TO DO THESE THEMSELVES. REPLACE THESE WITH ELASTICS SO THAT YOUR CHILD CAN EASILY CHANGE OUT OF THEIR TAP SHOES INDEPENDENTLY. Capezio make tap shoes with an elastic which does not require use of the laces so these may be worth considering if you are buying new. https://www.movedancewear.com/capezio-junior-tyette-925-tap-shoe-black-p94/ They are £17.
- We will check their temperature on arrival.
- The teacher will bring them to the main room where the teacher will show them their dance space for that day.
- Once everyone is in, if a dancer needs the toilet the assistant will take them one at a time to the toilets. Toilets are cleaned hourly when the space is in use.
- Please help them to practice changing from their tap shoes into their ballet shoes. REMEMBER TO TIE THE BOWS ON YOUR CHILD’S BALLET SHOES WITH THEIR FEET IN THEM AND STANDING UP, MAKE SURE YOU CAN STILL GET THEM ON AND OFF AND THEN SECURE THE BOW WITH CLEAR NAIL POLISH. This will stop them coming undone during class.
- At the end of class the children will be brought back down to you to collect from the foyer. There is no class immediately after theirs so they will not be bumping into anyone. Please be prompt for pick up and adhere to social distancing.
- All touch points will be cleaned between classes;
- Main doors, shoe boxes, toilet doors, flushes and taps and floors.
- There will be no other classes going on at the same time as theirs.
- Rest assured we will endeavour to make them feel relaxed and excited about class even though some of this will feel pretty strange to begin with.
- Advice indicates you wash their clothes after every class.
