Drakes Broughton Dance Club Risk Assesment Covid 19 Rules

UPDATE FOR ALL KIDS CLASSES. 

I am limiting the number of kids in each class for now so I can manage my Covid Risk Assessment to keep everyone safe, YOU NEED TO BOOK, please take note of the main points below for booking and attending class. 

I know most children have had a birthday during Covid and would technically be moving up a class, however please book your child/ren into the same class they were in prior to lockdown, this is for 3 main reasons:-

  1. The kids have not been taught the basic moves for the past 5 months and their body’s may not be able to deal with the more technical class they move into.
  2. The kids are already familiar with their group so will not be daunted by too many new faces and the Covid rules in one go. 
  3. The Hall will be refurbished in the not too distant future, this will cause a further resettlement process for the kids, so keeping ‘some sort of normal’ will help with their dancing experience.

Due to the above I feel it is sensible to keep as we were until we are back up and running fully, post Covid and / or refurbishment. 

We can then move forward with all the extra classes and fun stuff I have planned for the club. 

Kids Attending Class:- 

  • Parents / Guardians will not be able to enter the hall, please wait outside the front door at a safe distance with your child. 
  • You will be invited in to the lobby to register one by one (please bring the correct change where possible)


Please have the children ready for class, If it is raining, we will change them into their ballet shoes when they are in the hall. 

  • You will be able to take your child to the bathroom if required (only one toilet is available) 
  • The children will be required to gel / wash their hands, they will then be escorted into the hall where they will have their spot allocated to them. (the hall will be laid out as a grid - siblings can be together) 
  • We will make sure we have your phone number and you will be called if your child is not able to use the toilet without assistance during the class. 
  • Parents must be in the grounds of the Hall during the class in case of an unlikely emergency or toilet . 
  • When the class is finished, the children will be escorted through the lobby one by one to you where they will gel / wash hands and use the toilet if needed. 

Thank you so much for your cooperation,

Ness and the team x
