It’s a Wrap
We wrapped up Term 1 with an amazing week of Class Watching, where parents, family and friends joined us in the studios. Students were able to show our audiences how far they have come in such a short period of time, so very impressive. Well done everyone for making this term one of the most progressive our teachers have seen!
All the very best for those students who will be taking to the stage during the holidays in the AICD Houston Ballet Academy Scholarship and NSW Ballet Awards and the Asian Grand Prix. Your teachers have enjoyed every moment preparing you for these experiences and hope that you enjoy every moment doing what you love most!

Our RDA Lost Property cupboard will be emptied during the holidays, so Friday 12 April is your last chance to hunt for any lost items.
Congratulations
Huge congratulations to Year 7 students Ethan Wei and Irene Kim for their wonderful performances at the Joan and Monica Halliday and Isobel Anderson Awards respectively. Amongst NSW finest RAD students, they made Redlands proud!

Excursion to West Side Story
Whilst we only managed to see the first half of the show due to the rain, what we were able to see of the singing, dancing and acting, was phenomenal. The students thoroughly enjoyed what they could see and found the atmosphere of Mrs Macquarie’s Point a great backdrop for the performance.
