- It nestles within several subject areas (PE, Music, PAL, CCA, etc) and can be taught to pupils across P1 to P6 in a progressive structure.
- Performing arts provide the opportunity for social interaction through partnering dances and group performances.
- Performing arts develop self-esteem and confidence of participants, as well as self-management from the listening and concentration required during the activity.
- Dance and movement is a form of exercise and fitness-related activity which develops coordination, core muscle strength, flexibility and agility.
- Dance and Music performances are also a means of expression which allows participants to expend their energy positively.

OUR APPROACH TO IMPLEMENTING DANCEFRONT
Our approach to implementing DANCEFRONT is similar to the 3Es Approach of Enjoy, Enrich and Empower for PAM. Aligned with the school philosophy of Strong Fundamentals, Future Learning: By providing our pupils with diverse experiences, their view of the world will be expanded, developing them into adaptable and appreciative individuals. With every opportunity, our Frontierers will grow to become more confident and expressive each time they take their performance to the stage.
