Student Learning
Footsteps – Dancing Our Way Through Term 3!
All Magill students from Reception to Year 6 had an incredible time participating in their Footsteps dance workshops during Term 3.
Under the expert guidance of dance teacher Monika, each class took part in three workshops, developing valuable skills in teamwork, rhythm, coordination, confidence, creativity and performance.
Throughout the workshops, students embraced new challenges, worked collaboratively and demonstrated outstanding enthusiasm and commitment.
We were thrilled to showcase some of the students' hard work at our Week 10 Term 3 Assembly. The performances were a wonderful celebration of student achievement and talent:
N1, N2, Year 1 and Year 1/2 classes delighted the audience with their adorable performance of Tricky Frogs.
F3, F4 and Year 6 classes wowed everyone with their energetic performance of Miracle Maker.
F1, F2 and Year 6 classes entertained the crowd with the lively and fun Lil Boo Thang.
All students should be extremely proud of the confidence, resilience and performance skills they have developed throughout this experience.

We look forward to sharing the remaining dances and celebrating even more student talent at our End of Year Concert, with a Christmas theme, on Wednesday, 2 December 2026. It promises to be a fantastic evening filled with music, dance and festive fun for the whole school community. We can't wait to see you there!
