FAQ’s

Yes they do.
Studio Ruby Chew offers many different classes at our main location in Payneham, however these classes are written and priced specially for East Adelaide Primary School. -
Of course, it's disappointing when your child is unwell and needs to miss a class!
However, we kindly ask when they are sick, they refrain from attending classes to ensure the comfort, safety and well-being of everyone.
-
Parents must sign students out at the end of class.
When you arrive at 5pm, please meet Ruby or her assistant in the hallway in front of our room (Brad's Science room) and have your name marked on the roll. Please do not leave until this is done. This helps us provide the best duty of care for all students :-)

Please bring a snack for pre-class time.
As they are coming straight from school, we recommend packing an apron or old shirt too for messier activities.They're also welcome to bring show-and-tell items such as drawings they've done or a picture book for reference, just nothing too precious.

Sure do!
