🌍✨ One week on since the Dance World Cup came to an end and we’re still reflecting on what an unforgettable two weeks it was! ✨🌍

We are incredibly proud of every single Montfort student who represented us at this year’s Dance World Cup in Dublin.

From the moment they stepped onto the stage they brought their energy, passion, commitment and talent, giving every performance their absolute all. Watching them perform with such confidence, heart and professionalism was truly inspiring.

This was Montfort’s first time competing at the Dance World Cup and considering we are not a competition-only school we couldn’t be prouder of what our students achieved.

🏆 Our results:

• Junior Large Group Jazz 14th in the world
• Junior Large Group Acro 16th in the World
• Ariqa Virak - Junior Showstopper Solo - 25th in the world
• Rebecca Cripps - Children Acro Solo A - 16th in the world
• Eliana Chrzan - Children Acro Solo B - 27th in the world.
• Sadhbh O’Connor and Aurelia Barry - Children Showstopper Duet - 22nd in the world
• Sophia Brassel - Mini Acro Solo - 23rd in the world
• Eliana and Laila Chrzan - Junior Acro Duet - 28th in the world
• Cora Moore - Junior Tap Solo - 31st in the world
• Elena Walsh and Laila Chrzan - Junior Commercial Duet - 18th in the world
• Georgia Lyons and Isabelle O’Riordan - Junior Showstopper Duet - 19th in the world
• Elena Walsh - Junior Acro Solo - 21st in the world
• Orlaith Deasy - Senior Jazz Solo - 19th in the world

A huge thank you to our incredible Company teachers Karen Walsh, Sarah Moriarty and Naomi Luttrell whose dedication, expertise and encouragement helped make this journey possible.

Thank you also to all the parents, families, friends and supporters who travelled to Dublin to cheer on our performers. Your support meant the world and created an amazing atmosphere throughout the competition.

These past two weeks have been filled with unforgettable memories, outstanding performances and achievements that every student should be immensely proud of.

Congratulations to everyone involved—you represented Montforts with pride.

Until next time, Dance World Cup… 💙✨
