Whats Happened to Brent Street

Hello everybody, great to read your comments and your feedback.
I have been around Brent Street since the day it began, and when I reflect on where we have come from and going to, it has been an amazing journey......a huge learning curve. I was there on the first day when there were 8 students, second week there were 16 and 20 years later, we are still overwhelmed by the number of enquires for enrolment.

Of course we don't always get it right, but we certainly strive to listen to your comments, and improve in the areas that we need to!

We have introduced heads of each department, Drama, Musical Theatre, Singing, Hip Hop, Contemporary, Ballet, Jazz, Tap and Leah Howard is now Principal of Full Time........she has planned the most exciting year for the students this year!.

We have had amazing teachers over the years, and I would like to think whether they are in their own business now, or teaching else where, that we are all in the business of support people who wish to learn and grow in the industry! All the other institutions that you have named are also specialist and do incredible work.

We have approx 54 students in full time this year, and I am amazed by the talent of those who have enrolled. The number of people auditioning for full time this year was overwhelming! We are striving to meet their expectations this year!

Thanks for your feedback. I am always delighted to hear about your disappointment, or negative experience and take your comments with great interest to continue to grow into the school our students are looking for! Thanks for your honesty, and sorry we didn't met your needs! Thank goodness for chat lines so everybody can be heard!

Thought I might just clear up a few comments. Cameron is one of our very valued staff member, but certainly not an owner, he is too busy enjoying his ever growing career!

Last year being responsible for the financial stability of the business, I can assure you there were no staff members, or teachers that weren't paid for 3 weeks! The rumours have been amazing, but I guess the exciting thing is, Brent Street is on peoples lips!

Yes we are planning to move to Fox, to accommodate our growing Drama Department and our ever emerging and flourishing Singing Department. Our high school is creating huge enquiries for those wishing to begin or continue their careers at a young age. We have an intimate and exciting high school of 43 students!

Enquiries are coming from all sorts of talented students, who wish to learn a different way!

Enrolment for the part time school this year..over the last 3 days have been fun and extraordinary, with many students from other school....It is so important that each person finds the "right " place for them! I have had conversations with the few who are choosing to move on, and support them in the decision to do what most appropriate for them.

We have some exciting dancer/choreographers visiting each term from the US to teach, and can I invite you to our pro classes at night. Jacqui is doing a Wed night class, and our "import” for this term will have a Pro class during the day and a night class! Matt and Cameron continue to be in demand for their Pro classes!

I have been watching your discussion as the phone has been running hot telling me about this chat, and thought I would just clear up some of the issues!

Brent Street continues to strive for excellence, and as we are reflect over the past 20 years, intend to improve each year as we learn and grow!!!

I am now back managing Brent Street and have been for the past 8 months. Hope this info clears up some of the storiesÂ…Love to meet you at Brent Street

Whatever we donÂ’t get rightÂ…Â…We make every attempt to make everything else exceptional!
