✨ A VERY SPECIAL SCHOLARSHIP WEEKEND ✨

What an incredible weekend in Newcastle at the BATD Ballet & Modern Scholarships — amazing talent, inspiring class directors and such a memorable experience for our girls 💜

A huge congratulations to Emily, Lucy, Pippa and Poppy, who danced wonderfully in Saturday’s Junior Modern Scholarships.

An extra well done to Pippa, who was selected for the finals, recognised by the judges and awarded a Gold Star ⭐️

And then came a very special Sunday… 🩰

Pippa took part in the Senior Ballet Scholarship, where she again made the finals and received a Gold Star ⭐️

And to top off an incredible weekend, Pippa won the Senior Ballet Edith Duncan Memorial Award 🏆

Such a special achievement. We couldn’t be prouder 💜

What a weekend!!!
