…to the students for their beautiful performances in our concerts. I thought they danced with feeling and discipline. I was especially interested to see how well the students related to the music. They seemed to really get into the spirit of each performance through the music.
Term 1, 2019 commences on Sunday 3rd February 2019. Have a safe and happy holiday. I hope to see you in 2019!

I’d like to send a big thank you to all students for their beautiful performances in our concerts. I thought they danced, one and all, with sensitivity and confidence, never mind how good they all looked!
Thank you Michelle Peters (and countless helpers) for making them look that way.
A big thanks to Melinda Wheeler and Lee Bailey for their backstage and props – we’re very lucky to have you!
Last but certainly not least to all our teaching staff for your massive contribution, not only to our performances but throughout the year.
Have a safe and happy holiday. I hope to see you in 2018!
