Ordering uniform

Unlike other dance schools we do not insist that pupils are kitted out in full school uniform before they know if they're even going to enjoy the classes.

However, hopefully they will find that dance is fun and will want to stay, at which point parents will want to order uniform. 

Important changes from September 2011

Due to the rise in cotton prices, the cost of the current plum leotards and cardigans have risen sharply this month and my supplier cannot guarantee that prices won’t rise further! I have therefore decided to supply a new style of leotard which is very similar in colour to the existing plum but a different material.  This will be for all classes from age 2 upwards so the one leotard will be available for all pupils, although seniors may still change to the existing black after grade 4. 

In addition to the new leotard, there is a new matching skirt for Melody Bear, Prep and Primary grades and matching stirrup leggings from grade 1 upwards.  With the introduction of modern and theatre craft into the ballet classes, I was concerned that exercises that involved lying on the floor would constantly ladder ballet tights!  Children are welcome to wear the new heavy duty leggings in place of ballet tights (warmer for winter) and will only need to wear ballet tights for the actual exam (and I have found a cheaper supplier for these as well!). 

For boys, I can now supply a black boys ‘unitard’ which has a sleeveless vest type of top and cycle short length trousers or a full length stirrup version is also available.

The pink ballet cardigans used currently by the preschool children goes very well with the new leotards and is again  much cheaper, so I am happy to provide the pink cardigan to all ages or optional black for the older children.  I am also looking into some new black polo shirts with our school logo, similar to the current black sweatshirts, which may be preferable to the cardigans for older children.  If this is something you may be interested in then please let me know.

All existing uniform can be worn for as long as you like – if it takes 2 years to outgrow then that is fine and it will still be acceptable for exams so please don’t think you need to change!  But, I will no longer be supplying the old style for new purchasers.  It will also mean I can reduce costs for you as follows: Old style leotard was going to have to go up to £14 for juniors and £15.50 for seniors but the new leotards will be £11 for juniors and £13.50 for seniors.  Old style plum cardigans were going to rise to £15 but the pink knitted type is £9 for all sizes.  The new lycra leggings are £11 for juniors and £13 for seniors (size 3 and above).  All shoes are the same price as last year.

I hope you like the new style and photos will be available on the website soon for you to have a look at.  I will also bring samples along to the classes when we return.  The uniform order form on the website has been redesigned to reflect the changes but please do not hesitate to contact me if you need further details before placing orders.
