Floods can't dampen spirits of ace dancers
DANCING queens from the Riley School of Dance strutted their stuff at the recent English Championships held at Manchester.
Despite the Bentley dance school being closed for almost a year due to flood damage from June 2007, a troupe of seven troopers stole away with top rankings across the spectrum of different dance sections.
The high achievers included 13 year old Olivia Roach who was champion in both Junior Ballet and Modern categories, Charlotte Sabota, 11, who was fourth in Junior Song and Dance, Antonia Georgiou, 17, was outright winner of both the Senior Song and Dance, Samantha Carson, 16, took first in Senior Ballet and third in Senior Modern, Amy Smith, 16, was fourth in Senior Ballet and eighth in Senior Modern, Abbigayle Brown, 15, was sixth in Senior Ballet and Senior Modern, and Lydia Georgiou, 15, who was sixth in Senior Song and Dance.
Delighted dance teacher Julie Riley said: "All our hard work has been rewarded and we are immensely proud of our achievements."
