Top Tips in the Classes When your child receives the membership pack, put their name on the T-Shirt and encourage them to wear it in classes to feel part of the club!
Parents are fully responsible for their children in the under 3’s classes. We ask that you work directly with your child, encouraging and assisting where necessary. Support your child by holding the back of their T-Shirt so their hands are free for climbing and to aid balance.
Barefoot is best (and safest) for children as this helps with their development. Grown-ups can wear shoes if they aren’t high heels or heavy boots as these can hurt small fingers or toes.
In the over 3’s classes, grown-ups are not actively involved but must always remain on the premises.
Please dress children in suitable leg wear to allow for better movement and avoid jewellery or any clothing that can catch on the equipment.
Children are asked not to eat or drink on the equipment but if they need refreshments, you are welcome to take them to the waiting area.
If your child uses a dummy, please ensure they take it out before classes to protect them from potential injury.
Please do not take any photographs or videos during the classes and refrain from using mobile phones so your child has your full attention.
Before you leave and in the case of severe weather conditions, please check your emails, our website or Facebook page for closures.
Do not let children onto the equipment before or after classes. Please move to the waiting area so we can set-up safely for the next class.
Make sure you arrive in plenty of time and register your child at the desk. Please take your child to the toilet before classes begin to save interruption (this is especially important for the over 3’s classes). If you need to bring a sibling along to class, please be aware that they are unable to participate or play on the equipment as they will not be covered by insurance. We recommend bringing something to occupy them such as a book or colouring.
