BRILLIANT BOOG
Teams compete in sell-out shows
Youngsters from the Stirling area’s high schools took to the stage to compete in the Forth Valley Schools Dance Competition.
The event saw pupils from schools, including Alva Academy, Balfron High School, Beaconhurst High School, Dunblane High School, Lornshill Academy, Stirling High School, St Modan’s High School and Wallace High School taking part.
The competition, being held for the fourteenth time, saw more than 300 pupils participate in the two-day event.
The dancers had spent weeks perfecting their moves and outfits ahead of the fierce competition. They developed their own performances and choreographed their own routines.
The pupils competed at the Macrobert Arts Centre on Monday, March 27 and Tuesday, March 28.
The S1 to S3 pupils took to the stage on Monday evening whilst senior pupils from S4 to S6 performed on Tuesday.
A charity raffle also took place during the event, raising funds for this year’s chosen beneficiary, Kiran’s Trust.
Kiran’s Trust provides support to young people through schools and organisations to learn different types of art.
Some of this support is in creative art, specifically to introduce ideas, techniques, skills and media which helps students to visually express themselves.
Other support is in performance arts, providing opportunities for music, drama and dance participation.
