Circa Academy acknowledges there are times when Aerial Nights participants are not able to attend a class within their term enrolment and would like to offer the courtesy of a make up class if there is class capacity.

Whilst our excellent trainers provide supervision throughout their class in the Circa Studio we ask that all children under the age of 12 are accompanied by a parent or guardian to the studio door at drop off and pick up times. 

We also ask that if your child requires assistance or supervision in using the bathroom that you remain outside the class for its duration to be able to accompany them to the bathroom if required. 

Yes, Adventure Time Circus is designed to encourage participation by the child and their adult. Supervision in the session is the responsibility of the parent/guardian. 

Pram parking is available outside the Circa meeting room opposite the poster wall.

Babies are welcome in carriers/prams however it is the responsibility of the adult to ensure they are safe.
