The School's Founder: Dale Hartley-Brown B.A., L.T.C.L. ![]() Hi, I'm Dale, and through my school I offer a wide range of Performing Arts classes, teaching Acting, Singing and Dance skills including Jazz, Contemporary, Tap and Hip Hop to children as well as adults in the Rangiora and North Canterbury area. My school presents two major Children's Musical-Theatre Stage shows each year and gives my students a fun, confidence building environment in which to follow their dreams. I feel strongly about the skill set that performing arts gives it's students, both those who wish to perform and those who wish to gain life skills. In our new Modern Learning Environments, the ability to speak out, work well with others, and stand out from a crowd are all attributes that are increasingly valuable. I am glad to offer a place for people to find these strengths. What is the point of difference at HSPA??? We offer smaller class sizes that allow all of our students to feel included and accepted. We build our students to become leaders within our school, from this they become leaders in life. Covid Level Two Announcement: All classes at HSPA continue as normal with just a five minute earlier finish time. All prospective students wishing to attend free classes and trial a class are welcome to do so, as long as they can provide full contact details for contact tracing purposes.
