Lara dances her heart away
This has been a big year for Lara Griffiths from 5B. The 10 year old dancer will travel to Spain this month to represent Australia in the 2018 Dance World Cup.  The Dance World Cup will host over 12,000 competitors from 47 countries, and this tiny dancer will be dancing alongside the world’s best.  Qualification for this event is a huge achievement for such a young dancer.  Lara is super excited by this opportunity and is looking forward to performing on the world stage and eating churros with some new friends.
Lara in Action
Lara recently competed in the Hollywood Bound Dance Championships held at sea on Royal Caribbean’s Explorer of the Seas. Lara took out the Junior age category and was awarded the prestigious title of "Junior Dancer of the Seas".  Lara was also awarded an overall third placing across all age categories, which included competitors aged up to 18 years of age. 
Rep Jacket for Lara
Dancing is often not thought of as a sport, but the physicality and training it requires is as demanding as any other sport, including soccer. Lara has been working hard to prepare for this event with her teacher Lisa Holt at PAC Station Dance Studio in Seven Hills.

    We would like to sincerely thank our wonderful FIAT team for their generosity in creating and donating the beautiful Easter baskets that will be raffled off next week. During Lent, we are reminded to reflect on the needs of others, especially those who are less fortunate. Easter is a time of hope, renewal, and generosity, and these baskets are a lovely reminder of the spirit of giving that this season calls us to embrace. Your kindness and willingness to contribute reflect the true meaning of Lent—thinking of others, sharing what we have, and spreading joy within our community. #faithinactioncspd
