Croston New Venue / times

Hi Everyone,

The new time table for your Croston classes is now available to view in private pages.

There will be a free ‘taster’ dance session for Primary school age children taking place at Bishops on Wednesday October 16th from 11.30 until 12.30. All are welcome so please tell your friends!

Show date change!

Hi

As you know, the dates for next year’s show have just been confirmed and sent out to everyone. I have now discovered that the first Friday performance clashes with St. Michael’s High School Prom and we have at least 8 senior girls /boy who will not want to miss that!! Friday 6th July will now have to be cancelled and hopefully I will be able to arrange a second matinee performance on Sunday 8th July. All other dates issued are unchanged.

As promised, I am trying to organise the presentation of certificates due to children who took exams in the Spring and Summer of this year. Due to capacity limits, this will have to be divided into two separate events. An application to use St. George’s Church Institute, Trinity Rd. Chorley PR72DW on the afternoon of Sunday 27th November for Primary – Grade 2 children and the evening of Friday November 11th for Grade 3 upwards is now being processed. Further details to follow as and when the application is accepted by St. George’s. It would be very helpful if you could let me know by e-mail asap whether or not you will be attending.

Thank you.

 

‘Hooked on Dance 2012′ – Dates Confirmed

Hi

I have now received confirmation from St. Michael’s High School that the dates requested for next year’s show are confirmed and in their diary! They are as follows:-

Sunday 24th June (1.30pm)– First Dress Rehearsal

Sunday 1st July (1.30)– Open Dress Rehearsal

Friday 6th and 13th, Saturday 7th and 14th July 7.00pm — Performance dates.

The School would then break up for the summer hols, classes resuming in September.

The ‘costume deposit’ system will be the same as last time, £20 CHEQUE (payable to Anita Murray School of Dancing) per child. ‘Show slips’ will be issued after half term and these should be completed and returned to me with the appropriate cheque no later than Saturday November 5th. Deposits will be returned on the day of the first dress rehearsal providing all costume payments are up to date.

Have a great Half Term!

 

Half Term Break

Hi everyone,

Can’t believe it’s nearly half term already! The schools will be closed on Saturday October 22nd, up to and including Friday October 28th. Lessons resume on Saturday October 29th.

Having just received the last batch of certificates from all the summer exams I am now in a position to try and organise a presentation evening. This will have to be after the half term break now as there is not much time beforehand to organise it properly. Details will follow as soon as possible along with confirmation of next year’s show dates.

Baby Leo has arrived! Miss Katie’s baby boy was born at 2.44 am today and weighed 6lbs 10oz. Mum and baby doing well!!

The school now has a facebook page — go to the school website (about the school page) and click on the facebook logo. (Please ‘like’ us)!

Have a safe and happy half term!

 

 

Notices for both Chorley and Croston School Pupils

Hi,

Due to St. Michael’s Open Evening, we will be unable to use our normal studios on Wednesday 14th September. All classes (except Musical Theatre)will take place at Hollinshead St. Methodist Church rooms for this one evening only. Musical Theatre will have to be cancelled on this date as Mrs. Mackay is needed at the Open Evening.

Due to the National Heritage events taking place at The Old School, Croston, the 1.15 tap class will not take place on the 10th September.

I have now received the examination results from Miss Conroy Jones ‘ session and will publish these on the website later today. Hopefully they will be available to view by late afternoon.

Looking forward to seeing you all soon

Anita Murray
