The dance program is highly varried. Dance is the fine art often given only minot attention, at least for boys. Often there are rythmn and motion lessons in the Pre-Prep. Dance activities tend to be limited at many boys' schools, but more attention is given to it at girls' and coed schools. Here ballet lessons are often given. And here mostly girls participate, althogh zt a few schools a few boys also particiate. More commonly lessons are given in social dancing and Englih.Scottish country dancing, but this is less an arts program and more a social effort.
Dance is another integral part of school life. It begins with music and movementunder the Luban method and then some of the girls opt to take up Classical Ballet whilst boys can choose the dramatic form closely linked with mime.
