Term 3 Newsletter 

Term 3 Dates

Term 3 starts Monday 22nd July and runs until Friday 20th September. Please let me know by Monday 8th July if your child will not be back for term 3. 

Ballet Exams

The proposed dates for our ballet exams are 30th/31st August. I will let you know as soon as these are confirmed but I would suggest putting these into your diary for now as it is highly likely these will be our exam dates. Mock exams will be held from the 3rd-4th August, we will need to hold these over 2 days due to the number of exam entries this year. We look forward to seeing everyone in class this coming week for our extra exam lessons. The timetable for these can be found on our website under ‘Holiday Classes’. These will be charged to your account and sent with term 3 fees. 

Musical Theatre Class 

We still have spaces in our musical theatre class on Friday afternoons at the Town Hall. Please send me an email to enrol your child in this class for term 3.

 3.45-4.15pm Mini MT (age 5-7) $100 per term

4.15-5pm Intermediate MT (age 8+) $118 per term 

Extra Ballet classes

Primary and Grade 1 are invited to attend an extra class a week for the discounted price of $50 per term to supplement their exam preparation. Please email me if your 

child is interested and I will add this to your account manually so you are not charged the full amount. 

Social Media

Just a friendly reminder, if you have any issues or questions about the dance school please contact us via email, tararuasod@outlook.com. I will do my best to reply to this within 2 working days. Please do not contact myself, Alaina or Janine, via our personal social media accounts about anything relating to your child's dance classes, or Tararua School of Dance. BAND is the best way to message us directly and let us know about absences or share practice videos, we do love to see these! 😀

Troupe Auditions 

Auditions for next year's troupe will take place at the end of term 3. Date TBC. Please fill out the form attached to register your interest, so we have an idea of the numbers we will be working with. A 2025 timetable will be released before auditions so you are aware of what you are committing to 🙂

Contemporary Level 1

We still have space in our contemporary Level 1 class on a Wednesday at 5.15pm with Miss Alaina. Please let me know if you are interested in trialing this class. The cost is $100 per term. 


Thank you for your support and commitment this past term, we hope you have a fabulous holiday and find some time to relax. See you back next term!
