CHILDREN from primary schools across Devizes were able to show off their moves when a dance festival was hosted by the town's senior school.

Youngsters from Nursteed primary, Five Lanes, Worton, All Cannings primary and Trinity primary took part in the day at Devizes School under the leadership of dance and fitness teacher Caroline Newman.

She said: "I had a great time working with some very creative children from Devizes using the theme from the iconic New York photograph called Lunch Atop A Skyscraper. We used the picture to work with balance and teamwork. We are now looking forward to our next dance session."

Devizes School sports network coordinator Heather Lane thanked five dance students from Devizes School who helped supervise. She said: "These dance leaders worked closely in groups with the younger students to help them with ideas and to rehearse their dance moves.

"The event was a huge success and we look forward to working with Caroline again very soon."

The next sports event for primary school children will be a gym competition on January 31.
