WAIVER STATEMENT:
Dance training and the athletic exercises associated with it place unusual stress on the body
and carry the risk of physical injury. The New Zealand School of Dance will not be liable in any
way for injury sustained through participation in classes or related activities. Dance training
involves physical ‘hands on’ adjustment of the student’s body by the tutor.
Unless notified to the contrary, it is understood that the parent/guardian grants permission
for the management, faculty or staff of the New Zealand School of Dance to authorise any
emergency medical care deemed necessary whilst on site.

RIGHT OF ADMISSION RESERVED:
Please be aware that, in the interests of the health and safety of all Winter School participants,
the School reserves the right to ask any attendee who appears unwell to absent themselves
from the classes until their good health is fully restored.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Are scholarships awarded?

Scholarships are awarded annually at each level during Winter School. The winners are
judged on motivation and dedication in all areas and will be awarded a scholarship covering
full course fees only (not including RAD), to the following year’s Winter School. Scholarships
will be awarded on Friday 16 July. This will not alter Friday’s scheduled classes. Senior 2 and
Senior 3 scholarships entitle the students to participate in a week’s training alongside the full-
time students at NZSD.
Can I request a specific class allocation for my child?
Students working at the same level may request to be placed in the same class as another
student for transportation reasons only. Please indicate your request at the time of
application. The School will endeavour to fulfil this request but offers no guarantee.
Can I observe my child in class?
Parents/guardians are not permitted to view classes from Monday to Thursday. There will
be an Open Day on Friday 16 July, and parents are invited into the studio to observe classes
from start to finish. A maximum of two people per student will be granted entry, and each
student may have observers in two classes only. Pre booking is essential and can be made
from Tuesday 13 July at the Winter School enrolment desk. Photographs and filming of these
classes is prohibited.
