Central’s half-term activities continued today with a ballet and crafts course for children aged 4-7 years.
The course was led by Junior School ballet tutor Anna Zammit- Lupi. The course included a ballet class, a repertoire class based on ‘Room On The Broom’, with a pianist and an arts and crafts session where they made witches hats! 🎃🧟‍♀️🧙‍♀️🦇🕸
Central will be running more courses like this in February! Keep an eye on Central’s social media and website for announcements on course details and dates!
