We are incredibly experienced and our teachers will ensure they are continuing to work on technique and skill development while also up-skilling with learning new choreography. This way\, every dancer remains engaged\, challenged and inspired throughout the term. \n  \nWhat if my dancer is a Featured Role or Lead Role? \nRehearsal Times will be allocated in the schedule specifically for featured role and lead role rehearsals – we will advise these times very soon. \n\nMost featured roles will also perform in their class dances\, so these students will still be required to attend their regular classes.\nSome featured roles will perform alongside younger classes and will need to attend those rehearsals as well\nWe appreciate your support in ensuring these dancers attend all allocated rehearsals so they feel confident and well-prepared on stage.\n\nWe appreciate your flexibility and support as we make these timetable adjustments. These changes allow us to give our dancers the rehearsal time they need while continuing to provide high-quality training for every student – whether or not they are performing in the concert. \nThank you for being part of this exciting journey with us. We can’t wait to see our dancers’ hard work come to life on stage! \n  \n  \n  \n  \n

We believe this decision is a true testament to the students’ team spirit and commitment to the values we uphold at NCD. Their choice to stay united and support one another\, even if it meant entering a more challenging section\, reflects the strength of their character and the collaborative culture we’re so proud to foster. \nWe understand that this may require families to remain in Port Macquarie for an additional day\, and we sincerely appreciate your flexibility and support. If this change poses any issues for your family\, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us as soon as possible so we can assist. \nPerformer Checklist \n\nDancers must arrive with hair and makeup fully done\, and be ready to perform on arrival.

Competitions are a reminder of the teamwork\, hard work\, and spirit that make our dancers truly special. \nWe encourage every dancer to not only support their own team but to uplift and celebrate the efforts of others. Applaud generously\, remain gracious in competition\, and continue to represent NCD with the integrity and kindness we are known for. \nLet’s make this another memorable performance weekend! \nWarm regards\,\nNCD Office\nNational College of Dance \n
