16.01.2022 Our Year 11 students have excelled in their recent dance film project which was site-specific. Students had to research/consider the site's history and architecture to inspire movement and enhance meaning. The purpose was to challenge the audience to reflect on a prevalent topic/issue. Dance develops critical thinking and problem solving, and also builds literacy skills. Our dedicated dancers are organised and become better learners in their academic pursuits. We love that they share their talents with us. #shapingwomenofourtime

Thank you so much UQ, Dr Ziora and Ms Guthrie for this invaluable program. #shapingwomenofourtime
