General provisions

  • There must be 1.5m between participants and, where the child requires parental supervision, ‘spectators’ are limited to one parent, guardian or carer
  • You can have more than one class in a building if in entirely separate spaces/rooms; and timed so as not to have cross over in arriving/departing students; and density quotients complied with.
