Great fun for Pyjama Week!
To celebrate the end of our Graded Exam session, we had a relaxed and fun week of fundraising classes... in our pyjamas!
Over the whole week, students of all ages came to class in their pyjamas and took part in non-syllabus dance classes. Special events over the week included filming dances in fancy dress, repertoire classes, Zumba and cheerleading, as well as having parents join in with preschool classes, ballet and jazz!
Fundraising...
Many thanks to the many students who gave a donation at their class. We raised £803 for our Dance Fund which is used to subsidise events such as the Sparkle Party, Choreography Competition, Majors dance rehearsals and transport for trips and competitions.
Thanks...
A special thanks to our guest teachers and our own staff for their effort over the week. We welcomed professional ballet dancer and former student Vicki Paterson to teach repertoire in various ballet classes, Suzanne Crooks for a Zumba class with the Senior Jazz dancers and Sammy Clark came with Baby Charlie to teach some of the Junior ballet and jazz classes. The South Queensferry Jazz classes also enjoyed cheerleading workshops with Starshine Cheerleaders. Our own staff spent the whole week in their pyjamas leading a wide range of fun classes - thanks to Mrs Clark, Amanda, Diane, Paula, Hazel, and our student teachers, Kristina, Hayley and Rosie.
We were also delighted to have lots of mums, dads, brothers and sisters join in with pre-school ballet and Junior to Novice Jazz classes. It was lots of fun with lots of laughter!
