RDA Moonbah Dancers Update

Our Academy dancers are thriving in their classes at Moonbah! The Wednesday afternoon Jazz class with Ms Maddy is a huge success and Ms Jasmin’s early morning Ballet sessions are beautifully engaging, catering to dancers of all levels. On Friday mornings, Emma Johns offers an inspiring Contemporary class, and students also have ample opportunities throughout the week to practise in the fantastic space provided for them.

MJ the Musical Excursion

Back home our Senior Performance group students have been personally invited by Christopher Wheeldon to attend the final dress rehearsal of MJ the Musical next Tuesday, at the Sydney Lyric Theatre. This is a wonderful opportunity to experience his exceptional work firsthand. Christopher Wheeldon is also known for creating the musical An American in Paris and the ballets Alice in Wonderland and The Winter’s Tale.

Parent Pick-up Point

For Year 1 – Year 6 students, a reminder that we have a dedicated pick-up point, where you can meet your children after Dance classes.

Students will be escorted to this pick-up point by Academy staff, where they will be met by our OOSH team or by a parent/carer. As our dance classes run back-to-back prompt pick-up by parents and carers is appreciated. Any dance students remaining 10 minutes after their class finishes will be taken to OOSH, which will incur a fee.

Dance Curriculum

Callback 2024 Excursion

Last week, our Year 10-12 Curriculum Dance students had the exciting opportunity to attend the 2024 HSC Callback Showcase. This annual showcase highlights some of the best HSC Dance performances and compositions in the state, providing invaluable inspiration for our current dancers.

A particularly special moment was seeing our 2024 Dance Captain, Summer-Eve Smyth, take the stage performing her Core Performance work, You Are A Memory. This was both a proud and motivating experience for our students.

Congratulations to Summer-Eve on this incredible achievement! Your dedication and talent continue to inspire our dancers.

We look forward to seeing what our dancers will achieve in the future!
