The past few months have been busy for the ISA Arts team. The first live competition that took place was the ISA National Dance Competition hosted by Reddam House on 3 November. Despite the last minute uncertainty whether the competition would still be a live event after half-term, all 13 schools that had a place in the competition turned up as planned. The variety of dance disciplines was staggering. It wasn’t just a competition but a show featuring dancers from KS1 up to KS5 celebrating the art of dance with a live audience. Everyone in the audience, regardless of their school loyalties, supported each of the dancers on stage with their cheers and applause. The team from ISA HQ thoroughly enjoyed being part of the day and would like to thank all the dancers and their teachers for creating such an enjoyable atmosphere. Thank you to Reddam House for hosting the day.
