COSTUMES

Each student will be issued with a costume relevant to their routine(s) and will be charged a hire fee. 

​

ADDITIONAL ATTIRE

All students will be required to wear the following items - some you may already own, others you might need to purchase. Please ensure that all items are clearly labelled with your child's name or initials.

​

Underwear

All students are to wear either a nude or flesh coloured leotard, bodysuit or briefs and a crop top. This is important for modesty reasons when changing backstage. It also helps to create a nice line under costumes and prevents regular underwear from showing outside the costumes.  Underwear items can be purchased at Spangles, Bloch, Big W or Best & Less.

• Ballet and Jazz students are to wear full footed Theatrical pink ballet tights

ATTENDANCE

Attendance at class in the lead up to concert is really important. This allows all students to learn the routine and support each other with spacing and any partner work. Unless in the event of major or contagious illness, please attend all classes during term 3.

 

Students not participating in the concert will continue to learn dance techniques and the concert choreography.​​​​​
