George Thomson

Classical Ballet

  1. Grantee | August 2018

Through talent and sheer hard work, George is currently studying to become a professional dancer through the elite Australian Ballet School. A seasoned performer, George has toured and performed with the school across Australia after being first accepted into the school aged just 12 – the youngest boy in his group by two years. He is also the only male South Islander, and with his sister was the only NZer accepted in 2015. Up until recently, George was also playing top level hockey but is now focusing on becoming a classical ballet dancer in a professional international ballet company.
