Tuesday 4 June 2013

Dear Parent,

As you know, the country dancing festival will take place on Saturday 8th June from 10.15am to 12.30pm.  However, due to unforeseen industrial action St Fagan's will be closed. Therefore dancing will now take place in the grounds of Tredegar House near Newport which will be well signposted from the entrance gate.  Please arrive between 9.30 and 9.45 for registration.  Dancing will begin at 10.15am.  We are aware this is short notice but confirmation of the new venue was only given late last night (Monday).

Wet Weather Arrangements: The festival will go ahead at Tredegar House whatever the weather.  If it rains, dancing will take place indoors which again will be well signposted.  As we are unable to accommodate all schools indoors at the same time there will be two dance sessions 10.15-11.15 and 11.30-12.30pm.  See below for the time of your slot. ,Please could you arrive 15 minutes early to register.

Please note that there will be Country Dancing as normal on Thursday 6th June, in readiness for our Festival at St. Fagan's on Saturday 8th June.  We will also be giving out everyone's costumes on the 6th June.

An advance notice - Pontyclun Primary School’s PTA has asked our dancers to perform at the school fete on Saturday 29th June at approximately 11.30am. We will have one final rehearsal for this on Thursday 27th June (no other country dancing club between Tredegar house and this date) where costumes will be provided.  Please could you let me or Mrs Brown know if your child is able to attend this event.   

Many thanks
