A chilly Sydney autumn morning greets us at the Penrith Gaels this morning for one of the longest-running competitions in Australia. It is warm inside, the cappuccino machine is working and doing a roaring trade, and the hall is full of dancers and parents.
This morning, we have started with the younger dancers and their families and support groups are watching the dancing with great pleasure.
Our adjudicator today is Bernadette Whelan ADCRG and music is by computer :)
The dancing timetable is as follows:
8:30am 7 & 8 years
10:00am 15 & 16 years
11.00am 3, 4, 5 & 6 years
1:00pm 9 & 10 years
3.00pm 11 & 12 years
4.30pm 13 & 14 years
5.30pm 17 years and Over
Note that there is plenty of time for dancers in the Debutante Ball age group to both dance and make today's Debutante Ball practice!
