Zamble African Dance Workshops

As part of our Black History learning, we invited the fantastic Zamble African Dance Company into school to present assemblies and deliver interactive workshops. Pupils and staff thoroughly enjoyed their high energy dances, whilst children in KS2 had the opportunity to learn and perform some traditional African dance routines.
