TERM 3 DATES
Classes for Term 3 commenced on Monday 21st July, and will run through until Saturday 20th September inclusive.
Dates for all Kids Teens Youth (KTY) dance events are published and updated via our online calendar. Subscribe to our calendar HERE for an easy and convenient way to stay up to date, and never miss a day of dance!
BAND APP
With classes for Term 3 now in full swing, we kindly ask you to please download the Band App and join each class that your student is enrolled in, including any new classes that they have joined for Term 3 (a big thank you to all of those who have already done so!).
We use Band App as our main platform for communicating with parents and carers throughout the year. It allows us to share important updates, rehearsal notes, reminders, music tracks, and class videos all in one easy-to-access place.
By joining the Band App group for your child’s class, you acknowledge and agree that photos and videos may be shared within this private group for teaching, rehearsal review, and class communication purposes.
These materials are strictly for educational use and must not be downloaded, reshared, or distributed outside the group without written permission from The Space.
If you do not wish for your child to appear in shared footage, please let us know in writing so we can accommodate this.
CAPEZIO DISCOUNT WEEK – EXCLUSIVE FOR SPACE STUDENTS!
Just like cricket needs protective gear and swimming needs bathers, dance requires the right shoes. To support safe technique, consistent training, and confident performance, it’s essential that all students wear the correct footwear for their style.
To make this easier for you, we’ve partnered with Capezio Dancewear to offer our students an exclusive 20% off all dancewear and shoes!
- Valid: 11–17 August
- Discount: 20% off
- How to Redeem: Show the flier at checkout to receive the discount
What Shoes Should I Get? Here’s a quick guide based on style and age group for classes that wear dance shoes:
- Ballet – Under 9: Full-sole leather ballet shoes / Ages 9 & up: Split-sole canvas ballet shoes
- Tap – All ages: Black lace-up tap shoes
- Jazz & Musical Theatre – All ages: Black jazz shoes
- Lyrical & Contemporary – All ages: Please check with your teacher before purchasing, as each teacher has their own preference. Most commonly, skin-tone half-soles or foot thongs are used – but your class may not require them this term or year.
- Also Recommended – Dance undergarments with clear straps – ideal for wearing under costumes. They offer support and coverage without being visible on stage. Capezio has a great selection, and they make quick changes and performance days a whole lot easier.
Don’t forget to bring the flier with you to Capezio between 11–17 August to redeem your 20% discount.
Happy dancing (and shopping)!
TEAM SPORTS 4 ALL – FEE SUPPORT FOR DANCE
We wanted to let you all know about Team Sports 4 All– a fantastic organisation focused on providing every child with the opportunity to play sport (including dance!) regardless of their financial situation.
Team Sports 4 All is dedicated to giving all kids the chance to participate and thrive, and recognises how integral it is for kids to be connected to their communities. At The Space we work closely with Team Sports 4 All to ensure we can reach as many aspiring dancers as possible!
If you meet the eligibility criteria for Get Active Kids Vouchers, then you will also be eligible to apply for support from Team Sports 4 All!
If successful in your application, they will cover all fees for your child’s enrollment in a class of your choice at The Space. Their aim is to give kids a head start, and keep them dancing for as long as they wish!
