Frequently Asked Questions

We get lots of questions about our waiting list, here is a list of the most common:

My child is almost 6, 8 or 10 when will they be asked to join?

All sections invite new starters at the start of each school term.

There are many factors that we consider when taking off the waiting list including:

How many people are in the section already
How many people are moving into or out of the section over the next term
If a parent is acting as a leader
Is someone transferring from another group
If they have any siblings in the group
How long someone has been on the waiting list

Once your child is on the waiting list you will be contacted once a space is available for them.
