Fees
Annual Membership Fee - due 1st January: $30 (this also entitles students to enjoy groups, workshops and courses)
Quarterly Tuition Fee: $35 a term (3 calendar months per term - 4 terms per year excluding school and public holidays). This entitles students to one on one tuition for 1 hour per week.

New membership enrolments are taken Monday mornings only 9am-10am, by the enrolling officer on duty. Ongoing fees can be paid to your instructor in the Clubroom, notices are posted up in the club room.

Tuition fees can be paid up to a year in advance (this avoids the necessity to pay quarterly fees before the end of each term to keep your place on the roster). Refunds are not available.

Fees may be paid by cash or cheque only. We don't have credit card or eftpos facilities. Please bring the exact amount as we don't keep change on the premises.

Fees for each term must be paid at least seven days before the term ends. For example, if a term ends on Friday June 30, you need to pay the fees for next term by Friday 23 to keep your place on the roster. Once you have joined the club, you are entitled to four consecutive terms of tuition. You may wish to come for only one or two terms but, so that we can help as many people as possible, four consecutive terms of tuition is the maximum you can receive. At the end of the four terms, you are very welcome to continue your membership as a social member. The social membership fee is $30 a year. As a social member you can pay for and join any of the workshops the club presents during the year (many of these courses cost as little as $10, some a bit more).
You can also have access to the on-line Genealogy computer (no tuition), join extra activities such as Corel, Printmaster and special presentations, general meetings and extra activities which are free.

Procedure for Training Sessions
Each training session runs for one hour a week. The training roster is displayed in the Clubroom. Names can only be entered on the roster if fees have been paid.
All our Instructors are volunteers and if you cannot attend a lesson, please let him or her know by phoning the day before if possible. Your Instructor will give you a card with his or her phone number. If you do not come to class for 3 consecutive weeks without notification to the club, your name will be removed from the roster and your membership cancelled.
The Clubroom phone no. is 9913-1433. Please DON'T ring The Tramshed Community Arts Centre Office.

Rosters
Current rosters are placed on the notice board. Your name is added for your one hour per week lesson when you join the club and pay the fees.
