Events
We host a variety of events at the studio for community to get involved. Check them out.
Mid Year Performance
Each year toward the end of Term 2, we host a mid year performance celebrating everything students have learnt in the first half of the year. This is an energetic performance where everyone is trying something new.
The Mid Year Concert is hosted in early July.
End of Year Performance
This is the big performance everyone awaits with anticipation. During the 6 month lead up to the show, we focus on an important social justice matter educating our students on issues that help improve their wellbeing and connection to community. These important lessons are then weaved into their performance.
The End of Year Concert is performed in mid December.
Competitions
Students attending private lessons are welcome to compete in local and interstate competitions.
Our advanced performance teams enter local competitions.
To date our students have qualified for and won national titles.
Australian Schools Challenge
Rockit is proud to perform in Australia's newest major event, the Australian Schools Challenge. Public, private and independent schools create powerful storytelling works to inspire each other.
Each school competes for a variety of prizes rewarding positive growth mind set.

Mount Barker
Christmas Pageant
We are big fans of the annual Mount Barker Christmas pageant, and march every year as the Rockit Reindeers. Look out for our gigantic truck carrying all our tiny reindeers as the older students lead the way on foot. This is such a fun community event which everyone loves to get involved in.
The Mount Barker pageant takes place the first Saturday of December.

This exciting event not only highlights the hard work and dedication of our SACE Stage 1 and 2 students, who are graded on their performances, but also provides Advanced Teams with the opportunity to learn and present new and challenging routines. Join us for an inspiring evening of dance that celebrates creativity, skill, and passion!
