Covid-19 Preventative Measures
We can’t wait to welcome you and your bear cubs back to our music classes. The safety of you, your children and our team is our number one priority. Here are some of the key points of our Happy Cubs Covid-19 preventative measures.
Cleaning and disinfection measures

- All areas/touch points of the venue will be cleaned regularly by our team.
- All teaching equipment used during class will be disinfected before and after each class.
