Top placings at National Dance Challenge

Baradene College launched a Dance Academy in 2022 - a new initiative for our talented dancers at Baradene.

After holding auditions, Year 13 students choreographed dance pieces that they taught and polished for the National Dance Challenge competition, where many schools compete in various dance genres.
