Arts Awards for dance success
We were honoured to receive recognition from Falkirk Council for success throughout 2016.
The Falkirk Council Annual Awards recognise the achievements of people from around Falkirk in Sports and the Arts which have brought Merit to the Falkirk area. The Arts awards are presented in association with Falkirk Arts and Civic Council at a ceremony held in Falkirk Town Hall.
We were awarded certificates and a medal for group successes:
- Principal of Central Scotland Ballet School, Mrs Jacqueline Clark, collected an award in recognition of our collaborative performance with the Russian State Ballet in November.
- Dancer Zoe Young collected an award on behalf of the Starshine Elite teams in recognition of their 2016 competition success.
- Dancer Rosie Collier collected an award on behalf of the Starshine Junior Elite Team who had represented Scotland at European and World level in 2016
