Orlęta Polish Folk Dance Group is a vibrant and talented children’s group based in Wellington!
Since 1994, Orlęta has been captivating audiences both at home and abroad with its spirited renditions of Poland’s rich folkloric dances. Through dance and music, the group’s leaders strive to keep their cultural heritage alive and ensure that it continues to be a source of pride and identity for future generations. Last year, they celebrated their 30th anniversary! Many of Orleta’s dancers, past and present, are descendants of the first Polish refugee children who came to New Zealand. Orleta invites you on a journey through Poland's regions, showcasing vibrant costumes, traditional music, and energetic steps.
