DROP OFF & PICK UP
As we have done for the past few years, students will be collected by their teacher at the start of their lesson, from the Birdwood Lane entrance.
Where possible students should arrive dressed & ready for their class. If students are arriving straight from school, they may enter the building 5mins before their lesson to change. Students must be able to dress themselves when they arrive.
At the end of their lesson, students will be brought back down the stairs to be collected from the Birdwood Lane entrance at Lane Cove Dance Academy.
Only enrolled students and staff are permitted to enter the Academy and only during their scheduled class time. No parents will be allowed in the Academy.
New students, please wait at the Birdwood Lane entrance for your teacher, this is the easiest place for them to find you.
UNIFORM
Please make sure your child is in the correct uniform for all classes.
Good grooming is essential. All ballet students (Kindergarten age & above) must have their hair in a ballet bun if they wish to participate in class. For all other dance styles students must have their hair up.
Please do not wear jewellery or watches into any dance class.
You can purchase our uniform from Bloch, Chatswood. Details can be found HERE. If you tell them at Bloch, you are attending Lane Cove Dance Academy, they will know what to give you and you can apply for a privilege card in-store.
You can also go to our second-hand uniform group on Facebook; LCDA 2nd Hand Uniforms
