Fancy Dress Non-Uniform Week

Week commencing Monday 27th June

Redhurst will be holding a

‘Fancy Dress Non-uniform Week’.

Your child(ren) can choose to wear a fancy dress outfit that they already have in their wardrobe or why not be original and make something a little different?

Pay £1 per class (or for more than 2 classes, pay £2 for the week), for the privilege of wearing your costume to class(es). Why not get together with a friend or group and arrange a theme?

We must point out however, ballet shoes, tap shoes and character shoes must still be worn and that costumes are not too long that will get under your feet when dancing.

Please give your donations to Miss Kay/dance assistant at the beginning of class.

We look forward to seeing our dancers in some very fancy costumes!

All donations contribute towards the Redhurst Schools Dance Show Fund.

Presentation Evening

REDHURST SCHOOLS OF DANCING SHOWCASE

& PRESENTATION OF CUPS AND AWARDS

Saturday 2nd July 2016– 5.30pm

Brambletye School Theatre

 

Showcase

As this year is a non- show year we will be presenting our usual “Showcase” of the Schools Festival work and a few other specially chosen pieces from classes and the various genres we have within our curriculum. This will take place at Brambletye School Theatre Lewes Road commencing at 5.30pm with an Interval at approx 6.15pm for Tea & Cakes and a Raffle (provided by my terrific parent supporters as part of our Fund Raising for the Show 2017. If anyone can help the “A” Team on the day or make cakes please let me know). This will then be followed by the rest of our 2016 Prize Giving.

 

Cups & Awards

For those parents who are not familiar with our Prize Giving, there is an award for 1 child in every class, who the teachers and I consider have made the most “Progress” throughout the past academic year. There are also Special Awards for Neatness, Musicality, Personality, Expression and even Theory! I do hope that as many of you as possible will attend to support and applaud those children who have been successful.

 

If you received a cup last time please can you return them clean no later than Saturday 25th June. If you are unsure there is a list of those pupils who won awards here and I will be reminding them personally.

 

Please see over for the Classes/Festival pieces I would like to take part, if your child is willing to participate, complete this form and return to me next week so I can confirm numbers. There will be a rehearsal/run through at the Theatre at 4.30 prior to the performance at 5.30pm.

 

Our Presentations should conclude no later than 7.30pm, all being well. I’m sure it will be a most enjoyable and successful evening as we celebrate the pupils great achievements from this last academic year!

 

Thank you in advance for your support, looking forward to seeing you there!

 

Kindest regards,

Kay Ball
