Danser in de Klas – A school visit from a professional dancer
Kindergarten and grade 1-2
This special project involves a class visit by a dancer from NDT. The dancer performs a solo right in the middle of the children, who are seated around in a circle.The children get a playful introduction to modern dance and, after the solo, process their viewing experience during a moment of interaction with the dancer.
NDT School Performances – Going to the theatre
Group 5-8
Twice every season, NDT stages a performance featuring beautiful and humorous highlights from NDT 2 performance. These performances are created especially for students in the upper years of primary school (Years 5, 6, 7 and 8 in the Dutch education system, or the international equivalent depending on your country). Prior to the theatre visit al children participate in an NDT dance workshop taught at the school.
“It was a great performance! The children were very enthusiastic. We also thought it was very luxurious that we were picked up by the bus, everything was organized well.”

A dance curriculum for schools
Kindergarten – grade 6
Danswaaier is a series of three to five classes to introduce pupils to NDT and modern dance. The classes are adapted to the learning goals for art in primary schools and suit the stages of development of children in the various years.
NDT works together with a number of partner schools to experiment with activities for primary schools and use this experiment to develop new educational projects. The main focus of these partnerships is the interaction between the two institutions.
