The dancers, aged from seven to 17, took part in a children's variety show called Stars in Our > Eyes which included dancing to two pieces of modern music.

Louise Carter, dance school principal, said: "It was a brilliant day and they all did really well. We hope to be back in London for more performances in the summer."
