The Great Big Dance Off

On Tuesday, our wonderful dancers, who attend 'Dance with Dani' after school dance club, performed at the Great Big Dance Off on stage at the Gordon Craig Theatre. It was a brilliant day. The girls got to rehearse on stage as well as have their own dressing rooms like celebrities before their performance. They also got to watch the second half of the show from the audience. They danced both routines (Telephone by Lady Gaga and You Should See Me in a Crown by Billie Eilish) absolutely brilliantly and made not only Dani and Miss Simmons incredibly proud but also their parents who were whooping and cheering from the audience. It takes courage to step on stage in front of 500 people and perform whilst all eyes are on you, but they attacked it with confidence, smiles, energy, elegance and even the odd smoulder! The competition was very tight and as expected some of the more experienced schools gave good performances but we certainly held our own and were just pipped (by 1 point!) for the top spot out of all other the Stevenage Primary schools that took part - not bad whatsoever for our first competition! Massive congratulations to our 15 dancers and thank you for representing Almond Hill so well - we are all so proud of you.
