Dance Showcase

Congratulations to everyone who performed at our annual Dance Showcase held at NIDA over the weekend. As always, our dancers performed with confidence and energy, bringing a rich variety of pieces to the stage and demonstrating the depth of skill, teamwork and dedication that sits behind every performance. Congratulations to all students and staff involved in bringing such a polished and memorable showcase to life. Particular thanks are due to Dance Coordinator Jenna Skepper, Dance Teacher Kate Drady, Assistant Dance Coordinator Jess Dyson, and Dance Captain Isabella Townsend (Year 12).

High Potential Learning Showcase

Equally impressive was this week’s learning extension and enrichment showcase.

Across the Junior and Senior Schools, students work with our High Potential Learning experts, James Adams and Amy Kirk, on complex and challenging learning tasks. As students enthusiastically described their experiences in philosophy, mathematical problem-solving, advanced English texts, entrepreneurship and academic enrichment competitions such as the Ethics Olympiad and Tournament of Minds, it was clear that the program both challenges their learning and inspires genuine enjoyment.
