Notices

  • Congratulation to all the children that took part in the individual dances, you have all done yourselves proud, this year you have won 11 medals and several 4th and 5th places.

    Our groups also did very well.  All the other dance/stage schools entered at least 3/4 groups in each section, where we only entered one senior group, one junior group and one adult group. All of the groups gained 4th places.

    A big thank you to all those people who filled places at the last minute due to a bug going around and enabled us to enter the competition and come out with such good results.

    A big congratulations to one lady who went into early labour and gave birth to a bonny boy the night before!  Can't image why she didn't turn up to dance!!
