Matakana School rocked to the beat of more than a dozen different music styles last month, when students took part in a two-night dance spectacular called Move & Groove – a Century of Dance.
Every age took part, from Year 0 entrants to Year 6 seniors, with each class choosing a different theme, from Charleston to rock and roll, through disco to hip hop, funk and contemporary dance.
Vivid make up and colourful costumes combined with inspired choreography to produce a show that had the packed audience laughing and whooping from start to finish. Highlights included a class of zombies coming back from the dead to Michael Jackson’s Thriller, some very young cowboys, Indians, sailors and construction workers doing YMCA, and an all-Afro’d Motown medley.
