Last night, for the very first time, Kirkham Grammar School I3-J4 pupils took part in the Wyre and Fylde School Sports Partnership Dance Competition at the world famous Blackpool Tower Ballroom. Competing against 16 local schools, and with a theme of ‘One World’, they performed to 'Tribe and Elements Unite' from the film 'Pocahontas'. It featured some of Kirkham Grammar Junior School's older dancers as a Native American tribe representing the indigenous peoples of the earth, as well as other dancers representing the elements of ‘air’, ‘fire’, ‘water’ and ‘earth’. The pupils performed an emotional piece that showed happiness and strength as the earth became united as one world - the theme of the evening. The judges commented on the wonderful choreography, choice of song and the dancers ability to tell the story through ballet.
An excellent evening and one that the performers will remember forever...well done to you all!
If any of our parents who attended the event took any photographs, it would be wonderful if you could share them with us via email: m.tickle@kirkhamgrammar.co.uk - thank you!
