"So You Think You can Dance" Competition

Last Wednesday, my school hosted a dance competition, So you Think you Can Dance, which I was a part of. We performed twice, once during the day for the school to watch, and once in the evening, which was the actual performance. Altogether, there were around 20 groups who were part of the competition, and some special guest performers at the end.


 I was in a group 7 along with Rose (see blog) and Ellie (see blog). We danced to a mix of two songs, It's on from Camp Rock and We Go Together from Grease, so our dance was mainly musical theatre with a bit of hip hop. We were extremely surprised and grateful to come first place!

There was a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place, as well as two audience response awards, which one of them was won by the teachers, The Tutu Crew. Altogether it was an amazing experience filled with laughter, fun, and of course, dancing.


While I'm here, I would like to say a big thank you to Mrs Allan, for organising the whole competition, and dealing with 20 groups of dancers. You coped amazingly, and we are all grateful.

To the two hosts, Brooke and Zoe, you did a fantastic job. You were funny, clever, and your script was appropriate for the occasion, and evidently well thought through.

To the technicians up in the box, for all the lighting, the slideshows, and basically anything that uses electricity.

And finally, the people in my group. You all put your best foot forward (literally!) and worked hard to complete the dance.

Thank you to all, and others that were a part of it, that I haven't listed here.
