Kimberley College has created a Dance Academy this year, catering to students wishing to have a career in the dance industry.
Under the new dance umbrella, the school’s current dance eisteddfod and excellence programs have expanded to offer additional training and support for dancers wishing to make dance their career..
The program offers dance technique in a safe, supportive, and challenging environment. it has a strong focus on contemporary dance and students learn a range of skills to increase their movement and progress them towards full-time dance training.
From 2019, students in Years 11 and 12 will have the opportunity to study a Certificate III and IV in Dance, during school hours, on school premises. This ensures maximum contact time for academic studies as well as their part-time dance training, as they do not have to travel offsite to complete their qualification.
