West End Dancing spectacular!

Congratulations to some of our pupils who went to London with their dance school in the October holidays and had the opportunity to perform in the West End! Wow!

After 6 months of rehearsals at their dance school, Oak Tree Dance, the girls performed in a dance show at His Majesty’s Royal Theatre in London’s West End. It was truly a spectacular performance by all and we are incredibly proud of them. Congratulations to the girls pictured below and to Georgia H not photographed but involved in the same way. Well done!
