Summer Ballet exam results are back in record time!
Excellent results everyone!
Very proud of you all!
Miss Lauren 😁🥳

Classes have now finished for the summer break. We have had a very successful year with 90 students taking a combination of RAD graded, vocational ballet exams and IDTA tap and modern exams. With excellent results achieved in increasingly difficult exams. More exams are also planned for next term.
We have also had student success in vocational associate programmes, students gaining places in holiday associate courses and students taking part in the Memorial Awards.
On a personal note it has also been an amazing year for us as a family, we got married and we also bought our family home.
Excitingly next term marks 15yrs of me running Elvet School of Dance! Over the 15yrs I have seen many tiny pre-primary children grow up into beautiful young adults.
We will be celebrating this occasion with a party and performance on the afternoon of Sunday 6th October at New College. Please save the date. There will be more details to follow very soon.
I would like to take this opportunity to say a huge thank you to all the parents new and old, your support is greatly appreciated. And a huge thank you to all my students, you are all a joy to teach and make going to work everyday so enjoyable.
To the students we are saying farewell to this term as you either continue your studies at university, or are moving home/country. It has been an absolute pleasure to teach you and I wish you the best for your futures.
I hope everyone has a wonderful summer and let’s keep our fingers crossed for some sunny weather! I will be in touch soon with term dates and details for next term.
Love Miss Lauren ❤️

Huge well done to our RAD ballet girls who took their exams last week. You all looked beautiful and have worked so hard in preparation 🥰

On Saturday we said farewell to Hannah Fenwick. I have taught Hannah since was a little pre-primary and I have seen her grow up into a beautiful young lady over the 14 years I have taught her. Hannah has taken many exams over the years reaching up to Advanced Foundation ballet.
Hannah has started her summer with a trip to Cape Town which is an amazing opportunity. Then after the summer break Hannah will be continuing her studies at University. I wish you the best of luck for your future Hannah
