Dance Festival Alban Arena

County Dance Festival

Ten of our outstanding Dance students took part in the Hertfordshire County Dance Festival at the Alban arena on Wednesday. The festival was a celebration of Dance happening in and around Hertfordshire and the Birchwood Dance department were so proud to be a part of this.
The theme this year was ‘Art in Action’. Our dancers took this idea and created a dance piece based on the hustle and bustle of an Art gallery. They used various artists, sculptures and a fusion of styles for inspiration. The students put so much time and energy into creating such a wonderful and creative final piece.
The day of the festival was an excellent experience for students and they really showed Birchwood in a magnificent light. Not only did they perform a stunning performance during three shows, but demonstrated professionalism, determination and exceptional support towards other schools.
 
Well done to our students involved.
 
Miss Adams, Dance
