A SPECIAL awards night allowed friends and family of Bude dance group members to celebrate their achievements in recent exams.

Members of CJ’s Dance run by Charlotte Jenkins recently took RAD Ballet and IDTA Street Dance exams. The girls who took these exams achieved 100% pass rate, with grades of 97% Honours and the rest with Highly Commended in their Street Dance exams and Merits in their Ballet exams.

Charlotte said: “This was an amazing result for the girls and CJ’s Dance as this was their first dance exams they had entered.”

The girls recently took part in Bude Carnival, entertaining the crowds in the day with their dance displays and then went on to win first place in the Performing Groups section for the evening parade.

Charlotte expressed her thanks to everyone for their amazing and continued support.
