In memory of Ian Shiels

Monday 15th Nov
In August this year our Principal's father, Ian Shiels, passed away.ย  ย He had a life changing stroke 7 years ago, followed by major heart surgery to remove a tumour.ย  He spent his last years in aged care as a result of the stroke.
Ian was a huge supporter of TDLD; he supported Miss Rachael follow her dreams of owning a dance studio from the beginning.ย  He helped with everything - he made ballet barres, he created the first computer database for TDLD, he chauffeured RAD Examiners to the studio, he sold programmes at the concert, he helped with the fit out of the Male Street studios and more.ย  Please help us raise funds for the Stroke Foundation in memory of him and his legacy to TDLD.

Thank you to my Sponsors

He couldn't have had a better son and daughter. He was so proud of all that you both have achieved through passion, hard work and dedication. We were blessed to be his family.
