During the October half term the Zoons team delivered holiday dance clubs in Wellingborough, Kettering and Northampton. One of the Zoons camps had over 60 children attending on each of the three days!
Zoons Dance Camp are open to all schools and their students; regardless of age and even if they do not currently have a term time club with us.
The camp included cool freebies that are not available in the term time clubs and provided a great opportunity for school children from their local town to socialise and make new friends that perhaps don’t come from their own school.
Congratulations to everyone who attended and performed in the final day performances. Photographs are available at www.zoons.co.uk

After School Dance Clubs in UK Primary Schools
Sometimes Primary schools can be a little too focused on their provision of numeracy, literacy and the like to be interested in the Arts.
All too often the first items to fall off the end of the curriculum are Music, Dance, Art and anything seen as, dare I say it, "not real subjects".
Very often cross curricular links can be used when teaching dance in primary schools allowing important subject matter to be taught whilst keeping a focus on creativity.
An ideal way of ensuring that dance gets the priority it deserves to ensure that the children have access to an out of school club. A child attending a dance club prior to the start of a normal school is alert, refreshed and ready for lessons. An after school dance club also allows children to work out the frustrations of the day and if working with a professional dancer be inspired to take dance further in later life.
Zoons Dance Clubs are run across the United Kingdom for this very purpose on behalf of the company, Education Group. Education Group are the largest provider of educational services for primary schools including music workshops, indian dance workshops, african drumming or any type of dance session in primary schools. For more information go to http://www.educationgroup.co.uk
Dance need not be the forgotten subject that does not get taught. It needs to be given the status it deserves and the Zoons will ensure this happens. Go to http://www.zoons.co.uk and meet the monkey, lizard and panda that will do it.
