Craig Rosengrave — Nov 21, 2021

On the weekend our BHS Dance Performance Crew 'Defiant' competed at the NZCAF Hip Hop Nationals Championships here in Christchurch.

This team of 15 students, aged from Year 10-13, combined to create a mega crew and took out the overall title in the finals on Saturday, choreographed by tutor Keyana Beecroft.Below is a video link to their epic performance and you will see how impressive they all are. I am so proud of them and how they have come together. Four of the members have never danced outside of school and never competed before, so this was particularly special and a massive achievement for them and as a school. It was so wonderful for these students to be able to have this opportunity after a year of cancelled events. We truly have some talent here at Burnside High School and have had an incredible year representing Burnside in Dance.Enjoy watching the link below and please congratulate the following students if you see them. Myca Reforma, Jasmine Cheng, Grace Paek, Taylah Peek, Earl Jr Segua, Molly Brown, Aja Critchon, Millie Lamond-Aird, Dante Kalotapu, Kaia Turner, Mikayla Hanson, Briana Wilson, Paige Roberts, Olivia Keith, Sienna Odams.
