Flying Fruit Fly Circus School

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Flying Fruit Fly Circus School in Wodonga, Victoria is the only primary and secondary school level circus school in Australia. It was founded in 1987 as the educational arm of the Flying Fruit Fly Circus. It is a member of the "Australian Roundtable for Arts Training Excellence".[1]

The School was originally located on the grounds of Wodonga High School, but in 2003 a devastating fire destroyed the entire Wodonga High School facility. Police considered the fire suspicious.[2] The School was relocated to nearby Wodonga West Secondary College[3], now known as Wodonga Middle Years College Felltimber Campus due to a merging of the three public schools in Wodonga (Wodonga High School, Wodonga West Secondary College, and Mitchell Secondary College) in 2005-2006.It is home to many children who study the art instead of reading it out of books.[4]
