The annual Thomas Hassall Anglican College Dance Concert was held on Monday 11 December. It was wonderful to see our 170 dance students showcase their talents on stage after a year’s worth of classes. There was a variety of dance styles including, jazz, lyrical, ballet, hip hop, cheer and musical theatre. Our dance students are comprised from Kindergarten all the way to Year 12, making this a fantastic representation of progression of dance skills. This year, we formed a Junior Troupe along with our MISA Senior Troupe. Both of these competitive ensembles have won several accolades at eisteddfods this and these dances were also performed at the concert.

Thank you to our amazing dance coaches, Emma, Ellie, Kate and Natasha for their high level of choreography and dance education throughout the year. Their expertise is the reason our dance programs are flourishing and our students are improving their dance skills. We also introduced our new Director of Dance Academy for 2025, Mrs Melanie Whitelaw. She is an accomplished Dance / PE teacher and she will oversee the Dance Academy going forward.

Thank you to all of our dancers, you have worked so well this year and we are really proud of your efforts both on and off the stage. Lastly, thank you to our parents! Thank you for enrolling your children at Dance Academy and supporting the program by attending the concert and encouraging your dancers. We look forward to seeing you again next year with a refreshed and updated timetable and classes.
