Dance exams are a great mid year goal for our students. Syllabus classes prep for the
first half of the year towards these exams and students feel a great sense of
achievement and pride once completed. Students then progress through their genre
levels from year to year.

WHEN? Exams take place mid year and can fall anywhere between the end of Term 2 - mid Term 3

COST     Exam entry fees depend on the examination level however exams can range from $50 - $250

A word from our parents…
 “My daughter Maia was 5 years old
 when she started with Neverland. We
 had tried a few other dance schools
 before finding Neverland, but have
 never looked back.”
 - Neverland Parent

 “Neverland strikes a lovely balance
 between the fun and serious whilst
 nurturing the kids along the way. My
 son continues to blossom under their
 care and support.”
 - Neverland Parent

 “The staff are wonderful role models
 for our young daughters . They are
 genuinely interested in all the students
 and go out of their way to be
 accommodating when and wherever
 they can.”
 - Neverland Parent

              We can’t wait
               to see you!
