North West Gymnastics Goes For Top Tier
By joining Gymnastics Clubs Australia as a Foundation Member, North West Gymnastics has not only committed to continue to develop into the best operation that it can be; it has gone the ‘extra mile’ – accessing unique services, that confined to the limited number of Foundation Clubs in Australia.
Those are the sentiments of GCA Chairperson, Sarah Reid, who went on to state that North West Gymnastics is to be commended for such dedication to enhancing the experience of its people – staff and customers alike.”
Ross Gage, GCA CEO said, “this investment by North West Gymnastics will primarily take the form of participating in a range of high quality educational events, accessing specialist curated information and engaging with a first-class network of industry and sport professionals. As a Foundation Member, the Club will be able to reach even further into the opportunities available.”
In summary, Reid said, “as movement is the essence of life and that gymnastics should form the foundation of all children’s development; it is reassuring to know that North West Gymnastics is more devoted than ever to provide this essential service at such a high level.”
A non-profit, Gymnastics Clubs Australia is the Peak Industry Association for Gymnastics Clubs in Australia.

February 2021 Update
Hi gym families we’ve posted March tuition to your parent portal accounts.
Just a reminder by default we bill monthly on the 15th of the month for classes for the following month.
Also a reminder that makeup tokens were issued for the classes that were cancelled in week 1 however as mentioned in the cancellation email if you are unable to find a makeup class please let us know via email and we’ll happily credit your account for these.
Going to be absent? Make sure you log your absence in the portal at least 24 hours ahead so other families can access your spot as a makeup and for you to be granted a makeup token.
We know it is only week 3 however we are already planning ahead. If you are thinking of changing classes, days or cancelling you can let us know with a waitlist or drop request via the Parent Portal.
Something coming up you can let us know now. Enrolments do carry over between terms so if you know ahead of time you may be leaving us you can elect to drop a class at any time via the portal with 2 weeks notice.
Waitlisting in classes helps us to understand what you are after and when to schedule class places.
Of course – should we need to change the timetable we will be in touch to advise.
You can find the link to our portal here: https://app.iclasspro.com/portal/northwestgymnastics/dashboard

Enrolment Questions?
Lots of questions on Enrolments this week so here is a quick summary for our Gym Families.
Class enrolments and management of your classes is all done through our Parent Portal.
It is important you are familiar with the Parent Portal as this is the place where you can also log absences and gain makeup tokens if you are away. Here is the link: https://app.iclasspro.com/portal/northwestgymnastics
When you enrol or ask to enrol in a class you take a place in that class. Enrolments continue across terms until you request to drop an enrolment or transfer to another class.
Unlike many clubs, we offer parents the flexibility of being able to drop a class with 2 weeks notice at anytime.
If you are looking for another class time it is best to waitlist in that class and then we’ll come back to you when an opening comes up and can arrange the transfer for you.
Billing for classes comes due in advance on the 15th of the month prior. Fees need to be up to date to secure your place. Statements are emailed out weekly so ensure we are on your safe senders list.
All of this info is shown when you sign up and in our Club Handbook.
For more info on billing and the like see our Portal News here: https://app.iclasspro.com/portal/northwestgymnastics/news/6
We hope this helps 🌟
