Belmore South Public School

This term the K to 2’s are dancing to be fit and to getting used to the idea that dancing is for all ages, shapes, sizes, boys as well as girls!!

The School Dance group has so many boys keen to perform because the school’s consistent and constant approach is to ensure all our students are given the opportunity to make up their own minds about dance and movement from an early age.

Monday is a very busy day!!
Stage 2 and 3 have Music with the Jellybeans and Stage 1 and Kindies have Dance2Bfit.

The debaters are debating Burwood Public School.

AND Assembly is on at 2.00pm Monday, all welcome!

Cricket Workshops for Stage 2 and 3 are on Tuesday.

CSIRO are here on Wednesday and Thursday with Stage 1 and Kindies investigating Light 'n Sound. Stage 2 and Stage 3 had a great time doing all sorts of intriguing activites in Week 2.

Last Monday our dancers auditioned for Our Spectacular. They have worked hard for two hours a week for the past term and a half. 

Today there were screams and cries of delight as we told the Dance Troupe they had made it to the Spectacular. Some of the students have been trying for three years . . . you can imagine how excited they are.

One student imagines going to the Opera House and performing will be like the best excursion, a sleepover and just the best fun!

The panel of three came and watched what the dance group could do. They complimented the teacher, Ms Papadis, for her choreography of the Dance and the discipline of the dancers. They liked the choice of music War of the Worlds and the robotic theme. Above all they enjoyed the dancers crisp, effective movement. They couldn’t believe that only two of our students danced out of school.

Our success is due to a combination of factors: dance has been on our school program for the past 5 years, students have gained confidence in themselves as movers. These factors combined with Ms Papadis coming to our school have contributed to this success.

Watch the video we put up last week to see how good they are or even better come and see them perform on Friday 29 May as part of our Education Week celebration.
