Timetable

All HDA classes run for a full year, and unless you have made other arrangements the expectation is that students are committing to a full year of tuition. Students must re-enrol each year but there is no need to re-enrol each term. Please note that occasionally some timetable changes become necessary throughout the year, particularly in term 4 to accommodate preparations for the annual concert.

2025 TERM DATES:
Term 1: Tues 28/1/25 to Sat 5/4/25
Term 2: Tues 22/4/25 to Sat 28/6/25
Term 3: Mon 14/7/25 to Sat 20/9/25
Term 4: Mon 6/10/25 to Concert (date TBA)
