Let’s Dance

Let's Dance held their annual performance at the Congress Theatre,

Eastbourne. Let’s Dance brings together young people from local

schools and colleges in a unique celebration of dance. The boy’s

Dance Company took to the stage for the very first time, dancing a

piece entitled ‘Entrapment and Escape’. Well done to all pupils who

took part in the evening. They were a big hit with the audience.

The Dance Showcase

The annual dance showcase involved pupils participating from all year groups and from all dance companies. It was so

lovely to see the pupils up on stage loving what they do. Dance styles included street dance, ballet and Jazz with additional

choreography from Year 10 and 11 pupils. Special recognition to Chloe, Lucia, Eliza and Lottie who worked tirelessly on

choreography. Year 11 pupils completed their final dance exams in the evening with fantastic feedback from audience

members.Thank you to all who supported the event and for your generous donations. A big thank you to the PTFA who were

on hand to provide refreshments.

Create Music Summer School

Music Summer School returns this summer at venues across Brighton &

Hove and East Sussex! This year’s schedule includes the return of some

well-loved and popular courses for children and young people at all ages

and stages of learning alongside open access courses for those with no

prior experience but who would like to try something new – such as singing,

ukulele, Samba band, GarageBand or our new 3-day course in Eastbourne

where students can create their own show! If you are not sure about which

course would be the best for your child, have a chat with your child's music

teacher who will be able to help you decide the best fit. If your child doesn't

currently learn with us, call or email our team who will be happy to help.

Places on our Music Summer School courses are limited, and all courses

are booked on a first come first served basis, so book today to avoid

disappointment. We can’t wait to welcome students back to courses this

July and look forward to seeing you at Music Summer School 2025! Click
