A TOTAL of 50 'Little Stars' took to the stage recently for their annual showcase.
Aged between two and five years old the youngsters are pupils of the Peebles-based Fiona Henderson School of Dance (FHSD).
And after weeks of rehearsals, the children impressed a sell-out audience at the Eastgate with their skills – a venue usually reserved from senior dancers.
During the performance they performed a range of routines, including Highland, modern and ballet before all ending up on stage for the traditional free-style finale, where they took their applause from a very appreciative and proud crowd of mums and dads, aunts and uncles and other family members who came along to watch them for their big day.
After the curtain came down the youngsters then collected their certificates for completing their classes for the year or graduating up in the next class in the FHSD dance school.
Fiona Henderson, principal of the FHSD told us: "We are so incredibly proud of our Little Stars and how well they performed.
"They had been practising their routines for many weeks and this certainly showed when the curtains opened, the lights came up and they performed so wonderfully for their audience."
