The McDonald College has been at the forefront of ballet training in Australia since 1926 when the Ann McDonald College of Dancing was established. The sheer number of alumni who work in prestigious ballet and dance companies around the world is testimony to our world-class teaching. We nurture each dancer’s unique qualities and strengths for a pre-professional career in dance. And all during the course of a normal school day, while continuing to work towards their HSC in an inclusive, safe, and supportive environment where they enjoy coming to every day. Our aim for our ballet students is to graduate well-rounded, artistic, competent healthy dancers, capable of moving audiences with their established artistry, technique, precision and sophisticated approach sought after by world-renown finishing schools and tertiary education institutes.
