The exams were held in June, although due to COVID-19 the presentations were pushed back until November 29.
Ararat's Dynamic Dance Studio principal Laura Cameron said "it was great" for the students to finally be recognised.
"Normally the presentation is in June and is a totally separate event," she said.
"We just haven't had the opportunity to present anything until now.
"It was a really great week for everyone involved."
