[If you have any questions about this please contact the local Workshop Coordinator.] You need to be on a device where you can access these documents to upload them; it is best to do this on a computer rather than a phone.

3. A second contact person in case of an emergency (you will be the first emergency contact person) and essential medical information relating to your young person that needs to be shared with the Workshop staff.

• If there is a place available in your young person’s age/class group you will be contacted by the Coordinator. You will be given the term dates then.
• If there is no place available at the time, the Coordinator will contact you confirming that your young person is on the waiting list and that they will be given a place once one becomes available.

Step 3: Fee Payment. Statements & invoices will be emailed to you after the start of each term (autumn & spring). The fees are approximately €30 per workshop evening/morning session but the precise cost will be confirmed when the workshop starts in the autumn.
