Dance is a wonderful way for pupils to express themselves, whilst developing fitness, stamina and co-ordination. Dance gives pupils opportunities to try different styles, to perform and to work as a team in a supportive and fun environment.
All pupils are able to register to take part in dance clubs. We generally have around 100 pupils on the club register, and offer different styles; Jazz, Street and Contemporary.
Pupils can audition to join three high-performance dance groups, and if successful they will become members of our Elite, Company and Dance Academy
All dance classes work towards the annual 'A Star Danced' Showcase in February/March. Over 300 parents, staff and pupils come to see the show, it has evolved as one of the most popular events in the school calendar.
