Dear All,
we are now HALF WAY THROUGH TERM 1.

I
firstly want to say a massive congratulations and a big thank you to all those
students who performed at Bass Hill on Saturday. I have had feed back from those
that watched, Cynthia from
Stockings:
I am doing
another stocking order over the next 2 weeks. Please fill out the sheet that is
at dancing if you want them. All stockings are $10.00 each and must be paid for
beforehand.
DW
Dance Printed Uniforms:
Our
fantastic, custom new uniforms with new logos are now ready to be ordered. The
order form is at dancing. Shirts are kids $25 and Adults $28 and Jackets kids
$70 and Adults $75 each.
Website:
The website
– www.dwdanceacademy.com.au is
the easiest way for all parents and students to get information ASAP. Please
constantly check the website as I am always updating this with new info and
pictures.
COSTUME
DEPOSIT: Please see me this week for your invoice.
Please
pay this in a separate envelope marked with your details on it, by week 8
please.
A costume
deposit is required for EVERY student who will de doing the concert. EVERY CLASS
WILL DO AT LEAST 1 DANCE in the concert.
A
COSTUME DEPOSIT of $20.00 PER COSTUME, PER CHILD is due in WEEK 8 of this term
that is 3 weeks from now which is between the $15 and 19 March. This money pays
for the material to be imported, so the costumes can be made. Therefore if your child does tiny tot Jazz, tap and ballet,
then you will need to pay $60.00 costume deposit.
As like
last year, most costumes will not exceed $30.00 each in total. For a dance
costume, this is exceptionally cheap!!
Costume
washing care instructions:
Over the
last few weeks, I have had conversations to very stressed mums and students who
have wrecked their costumes by washing them incorrectly. Please follow these
care instructions so we don’t have any more washing disasters please.
·
Cold
hand wash only. DO NOT WASH IN WASHING MACHINE !!
·
No
softener, bleach or stain remover spray or soaker.
·
Gentle
detergent or “Sard’s” wondersoap
·
Only
wash dirty or stained area and rub by hand or by sponging, cold water rinse off.
·
Do
not wash feathers, sequins, net, or flowers and trims.
·
Hang
out on coat hanger, in shade only, not in direct sunlight.
If you do
have any costume washing issues, please see me ASAP so they can be fixed, or
perhaps re made if need be L
Mums
in the rooms:
We are
having a watching week, the last week of term, so all the mums, dads and even
grandma’s can come and watch the dancing classes, to see how their children
are progressing. We are asking that from now on, ALL MUMS wait out side (where
they can still watch) the rooms, especially on Tuesday classes as the children
are finding it very distracting.
Any
questions please come and see me,
Thanks so
much, see you in class.
