Southern Star Academy of Dance
Queensland Ballet’s Community, Education and Dance Health team are delighted to be partnering with the Western Downs Regional Council again in 2026.
This October, our team will visit Dalby, Tara, Jandowae, Brigalow, Warra, Bell, Kogan and Jimbour. We’ll be delivering First 5 Forever Storytime ballet library sessions (in Dalby, Tara, and Jandowae) and we’ll be moving with kindy kids and school students through In-School Workshops. We look forward to meeting dancers of all ages and levels of experience through our Dalby Community Class program. We’re grateful to the Southern Star Academy of Dance for generously hosting these classes.
Please email education@queenslandballet.com.au with queries.
