Assumption Catholic Primary School students showed off creative flair and a repertoire of tricks on Thursday afternoon, during a live circus performance for their peers and teachers.
In its sixth year, the circus spectacle is an annual project for year 6 students at the Meadow Springs-based school.
The performance was live streamed to people across the world from Nannup and Port Hedland in Western Australian to Croatia and the United States abroad.
The program was created and is implemented by year 6 teacher Sue Arthur.

Ms Arthur said learning circus tricks was a great way students could attain “cross-brain coordination”.
Ms Arthur used to teach on Christmas Island where she said hobbies such as juggling were common.
She said the opportunity to perform in front of their school was a chance for students to show off the skills they had acquired throughout the year.
On top of their large show at an Assumption Catholic Primary School assembly each year, the group performed at one regional school.
Having travelled to Pinjarra and Harvey in previous years, the group have set their sights for Waroona this term.
The local performance was a hit with teachers, parents and other students on Thursday.
Talented year 6 students showed off a range of maneuvers using the likes of unicycles, skipping ropes and balancing boards.
At one point teachers even joined in, which was met with squeals of delight from their onlooking students.
Ms Arthur said the students generally trained each morning for the show and managed to squeeze in a few extra sessions ahead of their major performance.
