Well done to all of our students who won medals and trophies at our recent awards presentation.  A total of 168 medals and 15 trophies were given out to our most improved, hardest working, most promising, and dedicated students from aged 2 1/2 upwards with our Student of the Year going to Isabella Gott from our Mortimer branch.  Well done to you all.

 

December 2010

Congratulations to Molly May Winterbourne who once again was invited to perform in Beatrix Potter with the Royal Ballet Company at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden.  This is an amazing achievement to be asked once, but for Molly May (aged 10) to sucessfully audition twice for this role is truly remarkable.  Molly May was lucky enough to dance with many leading professional dancers over the 6 week performance schedule and make memories which will last her a lifetime.  Well done Molly May!

January 2010

Molly May Winterbourne who currently attends the Royal Ballet School Junior Associates has just finished dancing at the Royal Opera House in Covent Garden. Molly May was requested to audition by her Royal Ballet School teachers for a part in "Beatrix Potter" which was performed by the Royal Ballet Company. Talented Molly May was only one of twelve children who were lucky enough to dance at this prestigious venue over a 6 week period. This is an amazing experience for someone so young - well done!
