Lots of exciting things!

Since our last update in March, a lot has been happening at our dance school!

Successful performance results and auditions

In May this year, we performed in the London finals of the British Arts Awards with the following results:

• Junior Singing Group, "Matilda" - 1st Place
• Senior Ballet Solo, Kallum Snook - 1st Place
• Modern Duet, Paightan Snook and Katie Snaith - 2nd Place
• Junior Classical Group, "Spring Day" - 2nd Place

We're now looking forward to competing once again in 2016. Our Premliminary heat is booked for Sunday 24th January at Park Community School in the new theatre, The Dickinson Centre. Many of our pupils have danced there before, performing in last years Arts Semi Finals.

On May 31st we had a day of ballet exams. The children gained excellent results; all Merits and Distinctions. The Highest mark of the day was awarded to Byron Snook.

Cecile Holgate successfully auditioned to become an Arts Educational Scholar at Tring Park in Hertfordshire and attends extra ballet classes on Sundays.

Kallum Snook has successfully auditioned for Ballet Central and gained a Distinction in the Intermediate Imperial Ballet examination.

Our new location

In July we presented a compilation show for parents and friends of the school. At the end of the show we were able to tell everyone about moving our school to a new premises in in West Street, Fareham.

August has been taken up with painting, refurbishing, laying dance flooring and putting up ballet barres and photographs!

We opened our doors on August 29th for present and new pupils to visit and view our new studios. Our first classes commenced on Tuesday 1st September.

Upcoming performances

Looking forward to the end of this Autumn term, we shall be presenting our Christmas Traditional Nativity. Santa usually visits with a small gift for each of the children taking part!

Our children and students will also be performing at the Victorian Festival of Christmas on 29th November in Portsmouth's Historic Dockyard.

Well, that just about covers what we've been up to in the last six months! As ever, if you'd like more information about classes we offer of what we're up to, just contact us.
