Course Description

Year 10 Dance prepares students for the Senior Dance courses which have literacy credits and are University approved.

Students develop communication skills through problem solving and working together as a team. They develop movement skills, personal fitness and health through a wide range of dance styles. They also learn analysis of dance and research different dance genres.

The skills learned in Dance are valuable in any career that requires leadership, team work, communication skills, creativity, taking risks and stepping out of your comfort zone. This is a very practical course that challenges students both physically, mentally and socially.
Working with others to create an end product that is going to be seen by the public is extremely motivating, challenging and exciting. It requires students to work cooperatively, take risks and step outside their comfort zone. These are all skills that are very sought after in the work place today.
