- Lancashire Dance Festival 2016 Video
On Wednesday 16th November 2016 some dancers across school took part in the Lancashire Dance Festival at Preston Guild Hall. 65 schools applied to take part and we were 1 of 14 Primary Schools who were selectred to take part based on our application. The theme this year was 'Once upon a time, stories and literature'. We chose the book 'Matilda' by Roald Dahl. Our dance explores the character Matilda and her journey through school with Ms Trunchbull along with her school friends including Amanda Thripp. The dance then ends with her meeting Miss Honey.
Can you identify; Matilda, Ms Trunchbull, Miss Honey and Amanda Thripp? What do you like about the dance?
If you were in the dance please write a brief description about your day at the Guild Hall.
Thank you for an amazing day on Wednesday dancers! You made Ms Watmough and Miss Howarth VERY, VERY proud!!!

I liked the scruffy school uniform and the theme of the dance I loved the way Matilda reacted with the song. The children did a wonderful job they should be proud of themselves well done to everyone.

I loved Wednesday! First i travelled with Poppy to the Guild Hall, then we practiced all afternoon in the holding room. After, we went to our seats and watched all the other schools doing their dances in part 1. When they finished it was part 2's turn and that was us! So we excitedly waited back stage. THEN WE DID OUR DANCE TO REVOLTING CHILDREN ! I think we all did very well. BEST DAY EVER!
