COVID-19 Protocols and Cancellation Policy for Students

Classroom SettingsĀ At Off the Wall Theatre Production Facilities

2024

Classroom Settings

Off the Wall is committed to maintaining clean and safe classrooms. We provide personal protective equipment (N95 and/or surgical masks, face shields, hand sanitizers, gloves, goggles, as appropriate) for all students. Our teaching space is equipped with high-end HEPA filtering units; classrooms are regularly ventilated, and fresh-air breaks are scheduled, for the comfort and safety of all participants.Ā

Health & Safety Coordinator

In compliance with Huron Perth Public Health recommendations, Off the Wall will regularly adjust Covid-19 protocols to suit current conditions in our area. A Health and Safety Coordinator will assist students with rapid tests, PPE distribution and H&S orientation. Maintaining health and safety can only be successful with students accepting their responsibility within a community of learners. Ā Ā 

Ā 

In-class Protocols

  • In each course participants, instructors and our H&S Coordinator will decide whether mask wearing is required or optional.
  • Students are asked to wash or sanitize their hands often.
  • Work spaces are pre-arranged for social distancing. Students are asked to respect othersā€™ spaces when interacting with teachers or other participants.
  • If tools or equipment must be shared, cleaning and sanitization are expected before and after use. For your convenience, sanitizers are placed near commonly used items.Ā 

Ā 

Food Protocols

  • For summer courses, an outdoor space, sheltered from sun and rain, is furnished with tables and benches for those bringing their own or takeout lunches.
  • During cold or inclement weather, students may have their lunches in the old factory building where there is ample room for social distancing.
  • The classroom is equipped, for participantsā€™ use, with a refrigerator.
  • A list of nearby restaurants will be posted.

Testing

Participants are tested upon arrival for the first day of class. Those with uncertain or positive tests will be asked to wear an N-95 mask in the classroom, the outdoor teaching space, the hallway between, or a washroom. Please wear a mask if you have recently had or been in contact with someone with COVID. Should students feel unwell during the course, or show any symptoms, they are asked to stay at home and notify the Program Coordinator by text (519-722-1482) or email (registrar@startfordoffthewall.com)

Ā 

Cancellation Policy

We limit class size to ensure instruction is geared to the participant’s skill level and experience. Once a class is filled, you may join the waiting list to be contacted if a spot opens up. Refunds will not be made unless we are forced to cancel the class. If you cancel your registration, we will make an effort to find someone to attend in your spot. If we are successful, we will issue a credit for a spot in a future class, subject to availability. If we are unsuccessful in finding a replacement, your fee will not be refunded due to fees and supply costs already incurred. Registration spots may only be transferred once.
