“To take our 11.5year old daughter out of mainstream school & enroll in distance education with full-time dancing is another thing I would never have thought we would have done. But this is something we have zero regrets about. Our daughter has a supportive group of like minded friends at her studio, she has a larger group of friends from around the world. She is currently holding an A average. We couldn’t ask for anything more” ~ Mum of Rogerson College student
