Policies & Support

Clear information about enrolment, attendance and learning support.

Trials & Enrolment

Assessments and trial lessons require an appointment. Any fees or free trial conditions will be explained before booking. HERMES will confirm your course, timetable, fees and place in writing. Submitting an enquiry does not reserve a place.

Absences & Make-up Lessons

Please give at least 24 hours’ notice of an absence. For sudden illness or emergencies, contact us as soon as possible. Eligible group students may request up to two make-up lessons per term, subject to suitable classes, availability and administrator confirmation. One-to-one lessons may be rescheduled with at least 24 hours’ notice. Late cancellations or missed appointments may incur a reasonable cancellation fee disclosed before booking.

Cancellations & Refunds

Please email us at least seven days before withdrawing from a course. We will calculate any fees for lessons already provided and applicable reasonable cancellation charges, then refund the remaining unused fees. If HERMES cancels a lesson and no acceptable alternative can be agreed, we will refund the affected lesson fee. These arrangements do not limit your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.

Child Safety

We aim to provide a safe, respectful and inclusive learning environment. Please keep emergency contact details current and collect your child promptly. Younger students must be collected by an authorised adult. Students leaving independently require written parent or guardian permission and confirmation from HERMES. Before- or after-class supervision must be arranged separately.

Privacy & Consent

We handle parent and student information for necessary educational, communication and administrative purposes. We obtain appropriate consent before publicly sharing identifiable student photographs, work or learning stories. Declining publicity consent does not affect enrolment or teaching. This website stores submitted requests in an access-controlled system for the academy to handle enquiries, bookings and enrolment. Email notifications and TutorCruncher synchronisation are used when the relevant services are configured. Provide only necessary information. Contact the academy to request correction or deletion.

Contact & Feedback

For absences, billing enquiries, teaching feedback or safety concerns, please contact us. We normally respond to general enquiries within two business days. Safety concerns are prioritised.
