Our Journey to Wentworth Point

Wentworth Point Community Centre and Library

Wentworth Point is a small up and coming community with many young families. Just like N2 Dance’s main Sydney dance studio in Ermington, Wentworth Point also falls in the local government area of City of Parramatta Council. When Issy heard the news of the new purpose-built facility, she knew it was the perfect opportunity to bring the joy of N2 Dance to this growing neighbourhood.
Wentworth Point Community Centre and Library was officially opened on 15th December 2019 by Lord Mayor Cr Bob Dwyer. Our dancers are certainly in for a treat!
