The children have all been working very hard to prepare for our event next week, they are very excited about sharing their dances.  

We are all looking forward to a lovely evening whatever the weather!

Please note all of the following:

• Children must arrive between 3.15 and 4pm at the Gates for signing in, but please be aware that no parents or families can be allowed in until the vent starts at 4.30pm 
• Children who are performing do not need a ticket. Tickets for friends and families are on sale in the studio now  at £4 per adult and £2 per child, or you can pay at the gate
• All children  will wait in the studio in between performances so they will be be warm, although all performances will take place outdoors. 

All dancers MUST be wearing:

• Black leggings or Jogging Bottoms, we suggest tights underneath if possible as performances are taking place outdoors. 
• Plain black top with no logos at all - again , we suggest at least two layers of clothing 
• Trainers and warm socks, Ballet and Tap Dancers  should also  bring ballet and tap shoes with their names in 
• Hair below jaw length should be styled in two plaits please. We will be providing lots of glitter....
• Children are also looking forward to wearing their Christmas Jumpers and this is fine with us of course,  as long as they have enough other layers to keep them warm. 
• All children need a named water bottle and either snacks or money to buy food / snacks from our Cafe. 
• All children will be given opportunities at various times  to spend time with their families during the event. A printed copy of our Event Running Order will be available free of charge on the gate, and will be published here on Friday December 9th.
