Dance Classes


Students in Year 6 have the opportunity to take part in five hour-long dance lessons in preparation for the end of year social.  A range of dance techniques and styles are introduced to the students beginning with Hip Hop.

Hip Hop includes a wide range of styles notably breaking, locking, and popping which were developed in the 1970s. What separates hip-hop dance from other forms of dance is that it is often freestyle in nature.

Students have enjoyed themselves during the lessons and have shown great skill in learning routines and performing them in gender groups to their peers. This week students continued learning their hip hop routine along with a partnered Jive Dance.  Students happily partnered with one another and enthusiastically learnt each routine.
