Dance NZ Made Competition

Sonya Gardiner —

This year we had eight talented students compete in the Dance NZ Made competition at the James Hay Theatre.

Samantha Young, Annabel Lowe, Libby McMahon, Sebastian Higgs, Keisha Jones and Molly King all performed a two-minute solo dance while Lily Hallahan and Bea Christie preformed as a duo.  All the performers were outstanding, in particular: Samantha Young, Annabel Lowe and Keisha Jones all won first place in their categories while Libby McMahon and our duo performers (Lily and Bea) received 2nd and 3rd place in their categories.  The competition was followed by a day of dance workshops run by professional dancers.
