Competition Success
(continued from page 1)

levels are reached by winning a 1st, 2nd or 3rd place at a series of competitions. Competitors usually dance in 3 to 5 events and awarded prizes in each. The overall winner then receives a trophy (except Primary level) for "Best in Class".

Recently our dancers have won prizes and trophies at every competition. Watch the board for ongoing results.

We are proud of every dancer who steps on the stage and gives their best. Getting up in front of a big crowd, and judge, is in itself is a major achievement. The many experiences of competition, winning and losing, gain us more than medals and trophies ever could.

Your participation in any project is voluntary and much appreciated. We understand that there are many school, church and club events happening in your lives. So, please jump in to each project whenever you can and to the level you are able.
