Their dance troupe, known as Seri Baiduri, comprising five boys and five girls, will perform the traditional Inang dance to a classic folk tune, guided by their English teacher and dance instructor Mohd 'Ainuddin Mohd Ramlan. SK Taman Seri Rembau headmaster Zulkarnain Abd Kadir said this debut participation is not only a source of pride for the school and the state of Negri Sembilan, but also a significant platform to elevate traditional dance onto the international stage. "SK Taman Seri Rembau has achieved considerable success in numerous cultural competitions. The group has performed before the Yang di-Pertuan Besar of Negeri Sembilan, the District Education Office, and the Negeri Sembilan Department of Culture and Arts (JKKNNS). "JKKNNS first recognised their potential two years ago, and this was later reinforced by the students' winning the Gold Award at the 2025 National Madani Children's Dance Competition held in Kuala Lumpur," he said. The talented students are Erina Az-Zahra Rose Nur Muhammad Hazim, Muhammad Nur Ziqri Mohd Helmy Rizal, Nur Imani Khairunnisa Ahmad Tajudin, Ahmad Redza Yussaini Zamir, Nu'Ayman Aqil Mohd Nashriq, Putri Adila Zulaika Shah Rizam, Muhammad Aryan Rizqi Shamshidan, Daris Nufail Rayyan Mohd Yamin, Nur Dhia Nadhirah Abd Latif, and Irdina Zafirah Mohd Ilham. Zulkarnain said the school welcomes financial support from private and corporate sponsors to realise the students' dream of performing on the international stage. "Potential donors may contact the school for further details. Every gesture of support is deeply appreciated, as the total cost of participation is estimated at RM140,000, covering logistics, costumes, and entry fees," he said. He also expressed his gratitude to the parents for their continuous support of the school's efforts to promote cultural heritage through the talents of its young students. "Our fundraising initiatives include the SK Taman Seri Rembau Dermathon, Staser Fest 2.0, and the upcoming Rembau Rumble Run, scheduled for July 26," he added. Meanwhile, Mohd 'Ainuddin said the main objective of participating in the international dance festival is to provide them with meaningful exposure that can shape them into confident, capable, and courageous individuals. "I've been training them for the past four years, starting from the basics of dance, appreciation of the art form, and refining their skills. With the experience and talent they've gained, I believe they're ready to deliver an impressive performance in Paris," he said. – Bernama
