Turning Pointe Tauranga

A sad day for us as we say goodbye to Sophie VDB. Sophie is an OG of Turning Pointe and a student of Mrs. Wilson’s since forever … along with her sisters Charlotte and Holly. She is heading to St. Peters where she will have Miss. Wilson keeping an eye on her as her Boarding Assistant😂 Sophie always gives us a giggle and we will miss her in Pirouette lessons ! Massive thanks to all the VDBs for everything they have done for us . We will miss you Sophie # #

What an amazing 2025 year our competition students have had. Everyone has reached and passed personal goals.

Thanks Rachael Elliott-Lowe for a fun photo shoot.

Taking a moment to reflect on our amazing NZAMD Contemporary and BBO Ballet, Modern and Acro exam results. Fabulous hard working dancers with well earned accolades. Huge thanks to teachers Lisa (Ballet), Chiara (Modern & Acro) and Laura (Contemporary) for an outstanding year of teaching!
Congratulations to our highest achieving dancer - Willow Elliott-Lowe with 100% for her Advanced One Modern Exam.
Can't wait to see what 2026 brings !
