Ballet school steps up for funding

RUBY and Rosie Wilkinson have been dancing for as long as they can remember, and now they’re calling on Top Enders to help their ballet school out.

The Palmerston Ballet School holds a major concert at the Darwin Entertainment Centre every two years, but after the last concert in November, the school is running low on money.

“The kids are still riding on the back of the success of last year, but we want to be able to do it again,” school principal Jan Hedenig said. Today, the school is raising money through a screening of Ballerina at CMAX Palmerston.

If you’re interested in attending, contact Jan on 8931 2508.
