It is included in the cost of the school fees and also covers the exhibition framework, the school and exhibition management costs. The folder is used for 3 years; if the student stops after 1 or 2 years, a supplement of CHF 10 will be charged.<\/p>\n<p>Each participant is reminded of the importance of tidying up his or her equipment, and will take particular care with the materials provided by the drawing school. Each child must tidy up his or her workstation and equipment at the end of the class. This time will be taken from the lesson, approximately 5 to 10 minutes depending on the activity.<\/p>\n<p>Each student must bring a pair of slippers and an apron to every class. Aprons can be bought directly from the school for the little ones or for older children. An old shirt will do, but it won't cover the bottom of the pants. Beige cotton aprons cost CHF 15.00 for children up to 11 years of age, or large black aprons cost CHF 20.00 for children aged 12 and over.

Classes follow the annual Fribourg school vacations and public holidays. Since 2015, a week's leave has been scheduled for the week following the annual event, in recognition of the effort involved in setting up, dismantling and moving the paintings...This is always announced at the beginning of the year on the website, in the vacation schedule.<\/p>\n<p>The year at Atelier Indigo lasts 10 months, until the end of June, on <strong><u>35 working weeks<\/u><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>The end of classes<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Students must collect their annual production and all their belongings at the end of the school year. The workshop accepts no responsibility for loss or damage to personal belongings or equipment left behind.<\/p>\n<p>As mentioned in the paragraph on the beginning of the year, if a student stops at the end of the year and has only used his or her file for one year, he or she must pay CHF 10.00 to the secretary's office to get it back. As it has been used and soiled, it cannot be returned to the school.<\/p>\n<p>The drawing school is on vacation from the end of June. <u>The secretariat is closed during the summer <\/u>and reopens during the summer course at the end of August.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Registration<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Registration is for one year, subject to availability.&nbsp;<strong>It is official and validated<\/strong>, for all registrations received from the student. For cancelled registrations or withdrawals between the end of March and the end of June or during the summer months&nbsp;<strong>for one of the major reasons listed below<\/strong>, the month of September and the 1st<sup>er<\/sup> term fees are due. The student then commits to the school for the entire school year. A major reason for dropping out of a course is a long-distance move, illness (with medical certificate), separation, divorce or redundancy. The enrolment contract with the school can be cancelled during the course of the year, with a document attesting to this. <u>with at least one quarter's notice<\/u>, <u>received at least 1 month before the end of the quarter<\/u>. A lack of desire is not a major reason.<\/p>\n<p>Registrations for new students must be made by June 30. If there are still places available, new registrations can be made during the year. Pupils who have already enrolled can renew their enrolment from year to year by <strong><u>March 30 at the latest<\/u><\/strong>, A new registration form must be completed for each student every year. A new registration form must be completed for each student every year.&nbsp;<strong>After March 30, the place will not be allocated to the student if the registration is not submitted during the month of March.&nbsp;<\/strong>The 1-month delay between the provisional list of students sent at the beginning of March and the end of March means that you can finalize your enrolment and have plenty of time to think about whether you want to continue your artistic studies the following year, while securing your place.<\/p>\n<p>Registration for&nbsp;<strong>discovery courses<\/strong>, once validated by the registration form, cannot be cancelled under any circumstances, unless the management is presented with one of the major reasons mentioned above. The student also commits to the dates mentioned throughout the year.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, registration for all courses is subject to the following conditions<strong><u>&nbsp;by no means<\/u><\/strong>&nbsp;be cancelled or reimbursed, but it can be postponed, in the case of illness only, to another course scheduled during the year.<\/p>\n<p>From December 2022 onwards, families have been informed that a reminder fee of CHF 30 will be charged for the first payment reminder to compensate for secretarial work.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Trial period<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Acceptance of a new student is final after a 4-week trial period in September, to see if the student fits in with the group without disrupting it, and shows an interest in the subject. The new student may also withdraw during this trial period.&nbsp;<strong>The trial period therefore applies to <u>new students only, as well as teenagers starting CO<\/u><\/strong>&nbsp;and, as a result, are undergoing many changes.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Course absences and substitutions<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Missed lessons may be replaced if excused by telephone before the lesson. <u>The replacement must be requested by the student or the student's parents, <\/u>and organize with the teacher, according to availability in other groups of the same age and schedule. However, lessons are non-refundable in the event of absence, and this applies to all student categories.<\/p>\n<p>For replacements, adults can catch up to <strong><u>4 courses excused<\/u><\/strong>, except for those undergoing medical treatment who are often absent. Beyond that, adult students lose their classes. They can catch up on regular weekly classes or on Discovery Saturdays, subject to availability of annual places.<\/p>\n<p>For substitutions, children and teenagers can catch up to&nbsp;<strong><u>4 courses excused<\/u><\/strong> in the same term as the missed course.<\/p>\n<p>These measures had to be taken because there were so many absences, some of them unjustified.<\/p>\n<p>Substitutions are always possible during <strong><u>the current school year only. Substitution is not compulsory, but depends on individual wishes and possibilities.<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Classes announced and scheduled as replacements, organized by the teacher and missed by the student, cannot be rescheduled.<\/p>\n<p>Classes cancelled due to teacher illness will not be replaced.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Epidemics and pandemics<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>An online course was set up in April 2020, on Teams microsoft. It proved its effectiveness to all students and even gave new possibilities for on-screen corrections, a new approach. In the event of a new pandemic or epidemic, the online course would be considered the equivalent of a face-to-face classroom course. It could start very quickly, without causing any harm, without missing a class, with the installation in place. There would be no special conditions, discounts, refunds or course cancellations during the year. The student commits for the year, according to the rules, and cannot interrupt his or her annual artistic curriculum. The online course meets the initial requirements for high-quality, effective weekly teaching, as well as the same level of service provided in the classroom, in terms of correcting students' drawings with a good program that enables each student to progress. Installation assistance will again be provided for those unable to install Teams, the indigo helpline. The online course provided an opportunity to get together.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Image rights<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Atelier Indigo uses photographs or images of works of art, numerous books... for teaching students. The school takes no responsibility for copies of works that might be promoted on social networks or websites, for the sale of personal works or for advertising. These author references are a way for students to learn how to draw or paint, which they should keep for themselves, privately, so as not to encounter difficulties in relation to the author of the work or a photographer's image.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Access to the school<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Atelier Indigo informs you that it is not permitted to enter the drawing school grounds outside of class hours. The sisters' private property begins at the entrance gate at the top of the staircase. Access is permitted&nbsp;<strong>for students only<\/strong>&nbsp;drawing school,&nbsp;<strong>during school hours<\/strong>. It is therefore illegal to come there outside of class hours. This new rule applies from April 2019, following damage to the courtyard, pebbles all over the path, glass scratched out of the window, beachflag pot filled with pebbles, chips, bottles lying around, urine, spray tag etc. This results in additional maintenance costs which may be charged to those responsible. L'Atelier Indigo accepts no responsibility for parents who fail to supervise their children and go into the playground despite our recommendations.<\/p>\n<p>L'Atelier Indigo had to install a surveillance camera in the small courtyard, to prevent any further damage or theft. The school could lodge a complaint in this case.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>The Flight<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Atelier Indigo informs that the equipment made available at the drawing school is the property of the school, as are any decorations or accessories found there. In 2018-2019, the Atelier has seen an increase in the disappearance of architect's erasers, rulers and other property etc... The student caught in the act will be immediately excluded from the school.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Drawing school intellectual property<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Atelier Indigo informs that any person copying the school's program on the internet, its philosophy, its rules etc...may be prosecuted, as well as any person who comes to do corporate espionage by taking an occasional course or several, with the aim of stealing structural information from the drawing school or transmitting it to others.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Le d\u00e9but d\u2019ann\u00e9e Chaque \u00e9l\u00e8ve re\u00e7oit un dossier A3 pour le rangement de ses dessins, en d\u00e9but d\u2019ann\u00e9e.
