Four classes, from $100
Four of any one Sunday class for less than booking them one at a time: art four for $160, chess four for $100, founders four for $200. Used across whichever weeks suit. Valid twelve months, and we extend if you need longer.
What you are joining
A La Vita Nova program
A different artist every Sunday, and a piece to carry home.
Ninety minutes, eight children, all materials on the table. They meet one artist, learn how that artist saw the world, then make something of their own in the same spirit. Chess and The Founder’s Studio follow it through the afternoon.
The project changes with the artist: scissors and paper for Matisse, tape and three colours for Mondrian, dots for Kusama. A child can come for months without repeating a Sunday.
Single classes are still sold separately: art $45, chess $30, founders $55. A pass is for families who know they will be back.
The artists
Your child meets one a week, learns how that artist saw things, then makes a piece of their own in the same spirit.
The three passes
One pass per class, each for four of that class. The weeks do not need to be consecutive, and a pass can be used by any child in your household aged 7 to 12. Passes already bought keep the price they were bought at.
Four art classes. Sundays 11am to 12:30pm, 90 minutes, capped at eight children.

What it costs either way
Before you buy
Do the Sundays expire?
Twelve months from the day you buy, and we are not precious about it. Come every Sunday for a month or spread them across the year. If a term break or a family holiday gets in the way, email us and we will extend. Unused Sundays are not refunded, which does not affect your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.
How do I book my Sundays once I have a pass?
Email info@lavitanova.com.au or reply to your receipt with the Sundays you would like, and we book your child in and confirm by email. Each one comes off your pass. Please do not book those weeks through the class booking page as well, because that page charges for each class as well.
Does a pass reserve a seat?
Not by itself. A seat is held once you tell us the Sunday and we confirm it. The art class has eight seats and the other two have twelve, so popular weeks do fill up. Tell us your weeks early.
What if we cannot make a Sunday we booked?
Cancel at least 24 hours before and the session goes back on your pass to use another week. Cancelled inside 24 hours, or not turning up, uses the session. If your child is unwell, contact us with as much notice as you can and we will put it back.
Can I use it for a sibling?
Yes. The Sundays belong to your household rather than to one child, so any child aged 7 to 12 can use them, including two children on the same Sunday if there are seats.
Does it cover the other programs?
Each pass covers four of one class, so a chess pass is used on chess. The twelve-week Founder’s Studio program is enrolled in and paid for on its own page, and no pass applies to it.
