WHO WE ARE

Create. Nurture. Encourage

Kingscliff Performing Arts was opened by Kristy Godfrey in February 2004. Our team of trained staff are dedicated to providing a fun and healthy atmosphere where students can learn the love of dance and the arts. Our aim is to challenge, inspire, build confidence and self-esteem in all students as they learn from professional teachers and dancers in the industry. We create a motivated environment for students to showcase their work through concerts, eisteddfods and special events.

We have worked hard to establish a dedicated presence throughout the Tweed Coast communities and continue to focus on our local community and the talented young people that live here.
