Sunday 3rd August saw a group of students travel to ANZ Stadium
Homebush to perform in a half-time dance spectacular for the
Proton Wests Tigers vs Bulldogs game. What a fantastic experience
performing in such a massive stadium!! Thanks so much to Visual
Impact Entertainment and Breanna’s Academy for inviting us and
hugs and kisses to the other wonderfully friendly students and
teachers from other schools that we befriended. We had a ball!
Sunday 10th August saw our Showteam return to Homebush – this
time to the State Sports Centre to compete in the Australian
Theatrical and Jazz Ballet Championships. We achieved fantastic
results - thanks girls for making me the proudest teacher ever!!

BALLET EXAMS
Well done to all students who participated in their ADAP Classical
Ballet Exams. Your results were outstanding (as usual!)
Here are
a few Grade 4 students proud of their results
Congratulations Anneke on a terrific RAD Advanced
Foundation result – Mrs Bonner is very proud of you!
Did you know that all of our dance courses build
on the belief that through quality dance education our students
can learn how to become better learners and can apply these skills
to other areas of their life? We love to use dance to help open
doors so that our children can experience richer and more fulfilling
lives.
Great school results are being achieved by our
students who implement our learning programs into their everyday
lives! Here are just a few:
