Interhouse Dance Finals 2025

04 Apr

This year’s Interhouse Dance Finals took place on Tuesday 1st April.  The competition saw a large number of students enter dances into the heats and, due to stiff competition, the top four from each Year group performed in front of a panel of external judges; Rachael Boarer (founder of RnB Dance Company), alongside Bishop Luffa alumni Lucy Keeping (studying Dance at the University of Chichester) and Rebekah Leggatt (studying Teaching Musical Theatre at the University of Chichester). The audience also had the ability to vote as the fourth judge and the collated results including scores from the heats are below. 

This year the House cup for the most participants across all Year groups were Burrows House!  Mr Hindman also had the pleasure of announcing the overall Interhouse Dance winners for 2025 - Burrows House!   The competition event had a great atmosphere with friends, family and staff rallying behind the dancers.

Thanks to all who came to support the event, it was a spectacular showcase of talent and demonstrated the passion and dedication the students have at Bishop Luffa for dance and a great way to end the term on a high.   It is evident a lot of hard work has gone into the rehearsals and there was some very technical choreography and the standard was extremely high this year.  There are some really talented performers at the school and it was such an enjoyable evening. Well done to all those involved!
