Monday 8thApril. It was show time. Do or die. After a whole terms\u2019 worth of hard work, it was finally time for year 10 to showcase their new ballroom dancing skills. We glided, spun, dipped and flipped our way across the makeshift dancefloor of the school hall. On the day of the performance, everybody dressed up in their chosen dance style, and the result was certainly eye-catching. There were 50\u2019s style dresses, suspenders, polka dots, bowties, and even some moonboots. The day ended with a dance off, where the best couples got to showcase their exceptional jive moves to the rest of the students and teachers \u2013 and we were not disappointed. People dove under their partner\u2019s legs, lifted and threw each-other sky-high, and even pulled off side aerials!
\nEven though it was a compulsory assessment task, we had so much fun learning how to cha-cha, waltz and jive over the course of this term. Although it may have been a little daunting at the beginning, each couple broke through that wall of awkwardness \u2013 and fear of cooties \u2013 to create an amazing, elegant and graceful routine, each with their own unique flare.<\/p>\n
