ℹ️ Why It Matters:

  • We need accurate registers by age group to deliver the best sessions possible
     

  • If you don’t book, we may not be able to accept your child that day
     

  • You don’t need to message us if your child isn’t attending — just don’t book that week
     

Common issues with app: 

  • Logging in with different email address - email on subsscripton must match for system to find you.

  • app can be downloaded multiple devises and logged in with same details

  • not being able to book due to being on wrong subscription. we will just need to move you to correct subscription.
