Brookmans Park Branch
Enrolment for 2008/2009 Courses
Enrolment is at the first class of each course. Students may attend the first session free of charge before making a final decision whether they wish to sign up or not.
However, due to the popularity of the classes and the limitations placed on numbers by the room we use at the United Reformed Church, it is always advisable to telephone either Lyn Pym (01707 650673) or Margaret Simpson (01707 654958) in advance to book a place. The fees for each 10 week course are £56.
