Jenelle, you have been a student in our school from the age of 7, and have always been a good and quiet student with a kind and caring heart. Over the years you have grown for a shy little girl into a strong young woman who has been a credit to our school. From leading the cast of Mary Poppins in the leading role, and rehearsing the junior dancers you have proved to be an outstanding dancer and a great teacher. We all love you to bits. ~Aunty Di

"I Started ballet when I was 4 years old and I started contemporary last year. I don’t know where to start. I love dance because it gives me the opportunity to express my emotions and dance my heart out. My dance family is so supportive and special to me and they make my day so much better. Through Dance, Aunty Di and Uncle Brads I have been taught discipline, and to prioritize. It also doesn't hurt to have Uncle Bradley keeping us fit." ~Anouk Van Coller
