Student Achievements
The Academy would like to congratulate Angus McLachlan who has received a scholarship to the Princess Grace Academy in Monaco. A terrific achievement and very well deserved! Congratulations Angus.
Also, our Yr 7 student Alyssa Tinetti has been awarded a scholarship to the Royal Academy of Dancing Intensive workshop. What wonderful news! We are very proud of both students doing so well.
