Student Achievement
22 June
Today the Damascus College John Shannon Centre came to life at lunchtime as students and staff took to the dance floor for the annual Dancing with the Stars competition.
For the last couple of weeks, students have undertaken dancing as part of their Health & Physical Education studies, as well as having a practice session last Friday during lunchtime.
Thank you to Intersport, who ensured the winners took home some great prizes as the sponsor for this competition. Dancers were judged on their performance of the Pride of Erin (the qualifier), and then on how they danced the Heel and Toe. Winners and runners-up were awarded to Senior, Junior and Staff competitors.
Congratulations to everyone who took part, and received a prize for their dance skills. Thank you to Gavan Walsh for again organising this joyous event.
At the end of the event all the dancers and the audience were invited to take to their feet for some toe-tapping line dancers, it was clear that Damascus College has some amazing dancers and an enthusiastic audience who were there to cheer them on.
