PHILANTHROPY @ SKETA OZ

Sketa Oz Philanthropy encourages, supports and rewards talented young dancers through annual sponsorship of Sketa Oz Awards at State, National and overseas dance competitions – be they eisteddfods, festivals or specially organised events.

We track Australian talent across the globe!

Since 2003, dance students from around the world have competed for the prestigious Sketa Oz Perpetual Trophies, Bursaries and Medals.

SKETA OZ NEWS

This year, Sketa Oz celebrates these young artists by finding out where they are today and what life has offered them in the 16 years since Sketa Oz Philanthropy began.

Are you in any of the below photographs?

Drop Sketa Oz an e-mail and let us know what you've been up to. Better still, we'd love to catch up over coffee or an orange juice.

Yes I know...calories, calories. Once on the lips, always on the hips!
