Ballet and Dance
Australian Classical Challenge
Congratulations to Dante Minassian who started the season off with a bang at the Australian Classical Challenge. He was awarded a one-week scholarship to Queensland Ballet Academy, 2nd Place for Classical and Finalist in Contemporary. Competition was fierce, and this was great practice for Dante who is heading to the Youth America Grand Prix Final in the US this April.
Special shout out to Imogen Jeffery-Bilich and Juliet Whelan, who both performed their Classical Solos.
