Walkers and Talkers

Energetic walks around the Ivanhoe area followed by optional tea/coffee.  Meet at Livingstone Community Centre 5 minutes prior to walk time. 

Refunds will be made when a course is cancelled or when a participant withdraws up to a week before the starting date.  Refunds will only be made part - way through a term if you experience an unexpected event (eg. illness) and you provide supporting evidence (eg. medical certificate).  The cost of any previously attended classes / sessions will be deducted before a refund is made.  For refunds of $50 or less, a cancellation fee of $5 applies.  For refunds greater than $50, a cancellation fee equal to 10% of the refunded amount will apply.

All prices are G.S.T inclusive. 

ABSENCE

If you will be / are away from class / session for more than 2 weeks during term, please ensure you advise your tutor / leader, or the office.  This will ensure you keep your place.  If your circumstances change and you no longer need your place in your class / session, please let us know so it can be offered to the next person on the waiting list. 

REFUNDS

***** Refund Upgrade Fee ***** This option is offered by WeTeachMe at checkout and is separate to Livingstone Community Centre's refund policy. *****

***** No upgrade fee is required for Livingstone Community Centre's refund policy ***** detailed below:

We are happy to offer a full refund should you choose to cancel your enrolment prior to the activity commencing. ie. cancellation of Term enrolment prior to the first session of the Term.

Unfortunately we are not able to extend this refund offer to activities where included materials are ordered in advance for each participant prior to the class commencing. In this scenario, the refund would be the class fee, less the cost of materials and tuition.  

We do offer refunds for individual sessions missed due to medical reasons, illness or injury. 

We are a small not for profit community centre and most of our activities are 'fee for service' meaning we rely on enrolment fees paid by participants to cover our overhead costs, including facilitator wages. For this reason we rely on full Term commitment to activities and charge fees as Term fees. 

We are unable to offer casual or pay as you go options, and we cannot provide refunds or credits for sessions missed due to other outings or holidays. We appreciate your understanding.
