FESTIVAL OF READING: DANCING WITH CHA-CHA-CHARLES DICKENS

As part of this year's Festival of Reading, Mrs Perry ran a session where year seven and eight students learned to dance the Sir Roger de Coverley, a traditional country dance mentioned in A Christmas Carol, Stig of the Dump and Sons and Lovers, amongst others.... the girls had never danced like this before but threw themselves into it and asked if they could teach it to the rest of their classmates!
