Best of luck to the cast of Oliver! for your opening night tonight! Especially to our dancer, who I had the pleasure of seeing perform in the preview. It truly was a wonderful show, and we are so proud of you.
As Oliver says, “Please, sir, can I have some some more” — and after seeing the preview, we certainly do! Break a leg and enjoy every moment of a fantastic opening night. 🌟🎭
What a lovely evening of dancing tonight! ✨
Our Grade 1 dancers have started preparing for their Tap and Theatre Craft exams and are working so hard already 👏

A huge thank you to the wonderful Cat J’s grown-ups for kindly baking cakes for our bake sale. The refreshments at last night’s show raised an amazing £102 for the Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice.
This incredible charity supports families through crisis care, bereavement support, and end-of-life care during some of life’s most difficult moments.
Thank you once again to everyone who contributed and helped us raise funds for such a worthy cause.
Fantastic dress rehearsal today! ✨ Everything really came together, and I’m so proud of everyone’s hard work.
Now we just count down the days… can’t wait to share it with an audience! 🎭

Meet Caesar – our crazy 10-month-old hound 🐶 His favourite things are chewing Barbies, playing with his dog friends, and heading to the café for a dog sausage.
This April, Caesar and I are taking on a challenge: walking two miles every day to raise money for cancer research. It’s a big challenge for a little pup, and we’re aiming to raise £100.
This cause is very close to my heart, so any donation or share would mean so much to us. You can also follow Caesar’s progress along the way – keep an eye out for his “pup-dates”! 📲
Every step we take is for those fighting this disease 💛
Thank you so much for your support. https://fundraise.cancerresearchuk.org/page/catrionas-giving-page-247
