Liam and Hayley Wilson

Ms McLEISH: Congratulations to Liam Wilson of Mansfield, who took home three gold medals for dance and modelling at the World Championships of Performing Arts in Los Angeles recently. With hundreds of participants from over 50 countries performing, Liam was the only male solo dancer to reach the grand final and one of two competitors in the world to receive a scholarship to Millennium Dance Complex in LA. Liam walked away with a grand final gold medal for solo dance and modelling, a gold medal for formal modelling, a gold medal for swimwear modelling, a silver medal for dance solo and was the overall champion of the world division for swimwear modelling—very impressive. It turns out his modelling skills are just as good as his dancing and his acting. He was in The Elephant Man, a Mansfield Musical and Dramatic Society production, on the weekend as well, and did a fabulous job there. Liam and his sister Hayley are examples of wonderful young people who are doing such a great job in their chosen fields of skating and dance and modelling.
