Dance

Congratulations to all our dancers who participated in Irish Dancing and the Dance Troupe this year! Your dedication and talent have been inspiring. 

 

If you have borrowed a costume, please ensure it is returned to the College Reception in a clearly labelled bag before the end of the school year.

 

Auditions for the Dance Troupe (open to Year 5 students and above) will be held in Term 1, 2025. We look forward to featuring these talented performers in the 2025/2026 College Musical.

 

Irish Dancing classes will continue next year, welcoming all students who wish to join our fun and engaging sessions while performing at College events. It has been a privilege to work with our vibrant and enthusiastic young performing artists throughout the year. Well done, everyone!
