EISTEDDFODS AND DANCE COMPS

There are various competitions throughout the year and most can be found here: https://www.comps-online.com.au

Students may only compete in solo dance competitions if they are a member of a Performance Dance Team. Please note: parents are responsible for all individual entries into eisteddfods. Although our teachers love to support our soloists, they are not always able to make it to every competition to support, due to other work and family commitments. Please ensure you are organised and ready for all comp days with costumes, music etc before the day of performance.
