look forward to what the rest of the year delivers. Classes will conclude for Term 2 on Saturday,
July 1st and resume on Monday, 17th July.

payments are finalized before the end of term. Enrolments and payments for Term

you wish to make any amendments. Office

UNIFORM Though we don’t
have strict uniform policies we do ask that our students take pride in their
appearance and come dressed looking and feeling like a dancer. Our
website has a comprehensive uniform guide and Gail in the office is able to
help you with any orders you may need for shoes or attire. We have been
absolutely delighted at how our gorgeous students have presented for class and
we ask that you keep up the good work. Please ensure hair is tied back
from face. We would like everyone to have correct shoes by start of term
as it is essential to the development of correct technique and adherence to
safe dance practices. We would also ask that all students bring a water
bottle to class to stay hydrated.
USA DANCE TOUR
2017 – Congratulations to our very excited USA team who will be
embarking on this wonderful adventure with their families and teachers in
September. The students will be taking
classes and performing at Universal Studios, Disneyland and on board Carnival
Cruises. Rehearsals will start in
earnest for these kids in our July school holidays.
ROYAL ACADEMY OF
DANCE CLASSICAL BALLET EXAMS Our
Ballet exams will be held in September and are open to interested and dedicated
students from Pre-Primary to Advanced Foundation. Entries close late July. We will be conducting preparation classes in
the July school holidays to ensure students are ready. There will be costs associated for exam
entry, pianist fees, additional rehearsals, uniform etc. Please register interest via email at rikki@steppingoutdance.com.au so you can be
updated with the relevant information. Our holiday classes will be held on
Tuesday- Thursday of the second week of the holidays.
There are also holiday workshops with RAD examiners in Bathurst
and Mudgee for those interested, which would be fantastic. Please enquire for further information.

EVENTS Please stay in touch with us via our Facebook page. We update it regularly with pictures and news

best wishes for a safe and restful holiday period for our students and their
families.
