STATE SCHOOL SPECTACULAR

We have had a wonderful year participating in the Victorian State Schools Spectacular 2023. It has been awesome to see our 16 students continue their friendships off the stage, practise dancing in front of the community, and helping the junior students learn the dances too.

You can watch the extended version of the State Schools Spectacular show on 7plus.com.au for 60 days.

Here are some Behind The Scenes interviews and team bonding activities!

Exciting news is that Box Hill North Primary School has been shortlisted again to attend the State Schools Spectacular 2024 as a Mass Dance team. We will hold auditions for Grade 5-6 students in Term 1 2024 Week 1, and the song for the audition is “Live Louder” by Nathaniel. Here’s the dance routine for practice.

Keep on practising and we’ll see you at the auditions next term!

CAROLS NIGHT 2023

We rocked out at Carols Night on Monday 11 December 2023!

It was awesome to see the whole community come together and support live music and dance for Carols Night.

A big thank you to all the staff, students and families who attended and participated during the night - it was surely a night to remember!
