Thank you to all the Leaders who attended the Leaders’ Information Session where Ken explained the functions of Member Wizard for Class Leaders. See the photo gallery here
Also in this item, we remind you of all the ways in which you can apologise for absence (but please only do it once). Also, how to use Member Wizard to find classes that still have vacancies and some upcoming classes that have a vacancy.
Absences
A number of members are asking if they can still put in an orange form for withdrawing from a class. or a blue form for long absences. The answer is YES.
Remember you do not need to apologise if you are missing for only one day. You can apologise:
- online,
- at the Reception Desk
- or mark it on the Attendance sheet.
But please only do it once.
Want to join another class?
A number of our classes have vacancies. If you are looking for another class to attend, go to the website and you will be able to see the classes that are still taking members.
Here’s how to do it.
1. Click on Classes and Events in the main menu of the Member Portal home page, to view all classes. To find the class you want, you can:
- browse the list,
- select a category of classes to restrict the list,
- search using the class code (the most efficient way for our long list of classes).
2. To find classes with vacancies, tick the box “Classes with places available”. This will show only those classes available for enrolment.

3. Remember to Checkout (twice) to enrol in classes in your shopping cart.
