Ballet

We had a special visit today from a grade 8 student named Sophia who performed ballet for the class. It was an amazing display of talent!  I dropped by the Volunteer Tea yesterday, in time to see Sophia perform for the parents.  I asked her if she would be willing to perform for the class as we had students doing their own “ballet recital “ in our class.  She was more than willing to come by today.  She danced and then she showed the kids her ballet slippers, tap shoes AND she brought in 3 of her costumes that she has danced in!  We learned that she has been dancing since she was 3 and she now dances 5 days a week, for about 13 hours in total.  We were so impressed with her confidence and poise- what a great role model for our kids!

  1. Thanks for the great show! Owen told me about the ballet dance, as the first thing when he got off the bus (he usually would not say much unless I ask).
