Joan Burnett OAM Scholarship 2019 winners announced

Launceston in Tasmania played host on Sunday 27 October to this year’s Joan Burnett OAM Scholarship.

Many inspired young dancers took part in Scholarship Award Classes with teacher Susan Sargison performing for guest adjudicator Adam Bull, Principal Artist with The Australian Ballet. National Director Rebecca Taylor also attended the occasion, her first visit to the region since joining RAD Australia in July this year, hosting a lunch with Tasmanian Teachers.

Adam Bull also gave masterclasses for students too young to participate in the Scholarship, inspiring them to continue their training in the hopes of competing one day.

A warm thank you to our hosts Ballet and Dance Arts Tasmania and sponsors Bloch and congratulations to all the students who took part.
