They've done it again!  14 August 2016

We entered the girls into the Dance NZ Made competition on Friday night for performance experience and guess what? They won the Open Section and Overall first place! This qualified them for another national competition that is the day after the one in Dunedin. They are amazing! The really exciting thing is that they are all Year 9, 10 and 11 girls... what an exciting future!
