This festive season, our dance artists Claire Benson and Olivia Quayle brought holiday magic to life, spreading joy to 602 children across 8 local BCP schools as part of our Advent Adventure schools tour! From wrapping presents to operating the sound, every detail was crafted to deliver an unforgettable experience.

The schools that joined the adventure included: St Mary’s Primary, St Katherines Primary, Pokesdown Community Primary, Talbot Primary, Mudeford Infants, St Luke’s Primary, Christchurch Juniors and St Ives Primary. The feedback from teachers and children was heartwarming, with glowing smiles and heartfelt words capturing the spirit of the season. A massive thank you to all the incredible schools and everyone who made this possible, including the amazing Claire and Olivia for sprinkling the Advent magic. Here's to more magical moments in 2025!
