Break Dancing Club

This term Chopwell Primary School has offered it's pupils an after school club with a twist! The pupils are offered a wide range of sporting, musical and artistic opportunities before and after school - but this is a bit different! A qualified Break Dancing coach comes into school to deliver sessions to pupils aged 7-11. The pulse of the music coming from the hall has disrupted the odd staff meeting but the children have loved it! The club has increased in numbers as they prepare for a break-dancing extravaganza in assembly next week.

Pupils from Chopwell Primary School danced to Queen's 'Don't Stop Me Now' dressed as cheerleaders. The children really enjoyed performing for pupils and parents in school too.
