Gaynor Morton Memorial CupLast term the school launched this very exciting trophy. For many of you who did not know Gaynor, she and I taught together for 16 years until, after a long hard battle with cancer she gracefully passed away. This cup is awarded for many reasons - not necessarily to the best dancer. Confidence, attendance, smartness and enthusiasm will all play a part. I hope this cup will encourage and inspire the dancers, as Gaynor did in her teachings. Welcome to the New TermPlease don't faint! This is my attempt at catching up with the modern world and getting organised. The website is a work in progress and hopefully, eventually, there will be a lot more links to other dance and ballet news and information (all being that my husband has the time to sit down and do this for me!). Welcome back to the new term, it will be a treat to return to normality after last term's hectic build-up to the show. For a report on the show go to the 'Events' section of the website. Looking forward to seeing all of the familiar faces back again, along with the new ones. So, grab your ballet shoes, get stretching (you're going to need it!), bring your smiles, and I look forward to seeing you at class.
