Our performance Troupe had a full day rehearsing on Saturday in preparation for our first competition.
We wish the students all the very best and I know they will perform to the very best. Costumes looked amazing and so did the fabulous props. Thank you for all your help in putting this together. We need our studio to have a great family support to make this all happen.
