SMITHILLS SCHOOL
SUCCESS FOR ALL
NYÁRI ZENEI KONCERT
This week, pupils from Years 7 to 11 shone in the Great Big Dance Off competition in Warrington, showcasing exceptional talent, focus, and energy through their dance performances.
Since September, these students have been dedicating their time to training, learning choreography, and rehearsing for various performance events, culminating in this remarkable competition. Their hard work, resilience, and commitment have been nothing short of inspiring.
At the heart of their success lies a strong emphasis on leadership. Several Year 11 students — Grace, Ella, and Aimee — played pivotal roles in guiding their younger peers. They took charge of choreography, nurtured and prepared Key Stage 3 pupils for performances, and managed music and costume planning. Their efforts exemplify the school's values and those of teamwork and mentorship instilled in the school’s dance and performing arts.
Mr. Milthorpe, Head of Faculty for Performing Arts and PE, expressed his admiration: “I am incredibly proud of all our dancers, especially our Year 11 students, who have demonstrated outstanding leadership skills through their dedication to choreography and performance preparation.”
