Last year was a great success for the pupils of the Chipperfield dancing school. £1,000 was raised for cancer research from the profits of the schools production of Cinderella which was held at Watford Boys Grammar School. The examination results were also very good, with everybody passing with high grades.
This year the school is having a make-over. As the Village Club is being completely refurbished, there is going to be a new dance studio fully equipped with a new floor, mirrors and barres. There will also be a new timetable and a new teacher to help with the running and organisation of the dancing school. Ann Hertler-Smith will be teaching with Clare Gurney in the new Clares Studio and will be in charge of the modern/jazz classes, which are available to all ages. Ann will also be taking aerobic and trim & toner classes. The new timetable is as follows:
TUESDAYS 2.00pm-2.45pm Baby Ballet 4.00pm-4.30pm Preparatory Tap
