Hundreds of parents and family members packed the hall to witness the sensational display.

Performing in class groups - each dance was choreographed like a circus performance "under the big top".

Clowns, ringmasters, tight-rope walkers, jugglers and wild animals entertained the crowd.

"The costumes were amazing, with parents and teachers spending lots of time sewing," principal Kay Thurston said.

"On the night parents and family members were on-hand to assist with face painting," she said.

Over the past two terms each class rehearsed their dance under the instruction of dance teacher Josh Taylor.

Mr Taylor choreographed the amazing routines, with students getting the opportunity to display not only their dance moves, but other hidden talents including juggling, flipping and cartwheeling.
