 **Holiday Clinics and other events**
All of our events must be booked in prior to the event with all having capped numbers. Events will also have a cut off for when registrations will be taken up until. Children will unfortunately need to be turned away if they are not booked in, in advance. No Make up classes or credits will be provided for missing a booking.

**Inaccurate contact details**
I understand that if I do not provide accurate and up to date contact information I may miss out on important and timely information which might affect enrollment, missed opportunities and the ability for Bounce Gymnastics to contact me if an incident occurs.

​

**Late Pick-Up Policy**
If your child is left at the gym without an approved guardian to pick them up: 
1. We will have them try to call their parents. 
2. If you can't be reached, and it is 15 minutes past the end of the last class, we will call the emergency number listed in your account. 
3. If we can't reach anyone to collect the child after 20 minutes past the end of the last class, we will call the police and have them come to collect the child. The police will contact you. 
4. Please remember to pick up your child promptly 
5. Please be mindful of your child's class ending time. A late parent pick up fee of $10 per 15 minutes will be added to your account anytime this occurs.

​

In case of emergency I hereby give consent to certified Bounce Gymnastics personnel and/or health professionals to administer emergency first aid to the gymnast and/or obtain medical and/or ambulance assistance as required. I agree to pay any costs incurred in relation to this.
