We took a tiny team of 9 ( one of whom missed all solos for Duke of Edinburgh, another missed a solo for show rehearsals and another missed a solo for holy communion 😬😆 )

Thank you Laura-Jayne Trattles for holding down the fort while I wasn't there. And a big thank you to the other teachers for your help and support, especially while I wasn't there!!!

Rising Star Comp may 2025

I am incredibly proud of each and every one of you!

I realised just days before this comp how many of you either didn’t do this one last year and/or moved from novice to open. I had this moment where I thought ‘what I have done?’ I entered almost the whole school because we loved it so much last year, then realised that last year we only took a small team, and I think all except 2 children had enough dances in the novice sections, last year, to not quite feel the full affect of the extremely high standard of this comp!

You all absolutely blew me away! I said to Amelia A after her lyrical, she never ceases to impress me. She sees what the standard is and just goes gives even more than last time - and somehow that’s every time she takes to the stage ! And this just seemed to run through the school. I saw brand new dances attacked in a way I didn’t expect , I saw novice dancers come out with an energy I wasn’t expecting. I saw my senior girls stand up and give the best of themselves, it would have been so easy to feel intimated by the standard of this comp ( though it definitely helps that the atmosphere was fantastic and so very supportive )
You all absolutely held your own in those super sections , both big in numbers and tough in standard. Medals are a bonus but certainly don’t define your achievements this week.

I was proud of the troupes we put out. They have improved so much since the January comp!

And even though I know this is the hardest comp we do, I loved it again and will be back next year!

In typical miss susie style I forgot the pick up our papers, they were kindly posted to me. Reading them through properly yesterday ( I’d looked quickly between dances at the comp) I’m so pleased to see many of you praised for points we were told to work on a few months ago. Let’s take this next set of feedback and keep moving forward !

I’ve pinched all the photos I’ve seen , if you have more please send them to me.

Novice supreme runner up champion - Charlotte
Junior supreme 4th place champion - Lucia
Most promising baby - Tabitha
Outstanding performer 8-10 - Lucia
Outstanding duet under 12 - Lucia and Aurora

And plenty of section places.

A big thank you to Rising Star stage events for another fantastic competition
