EXCITING TIMES AT LOVEBALLET DANCE ACADEMY...

The pupils at LoveBallet Dance Company have been kept on their toes this month - there has been the Easter Dance School, Examinations at the end of April and New ZumbAtomic Classes in May, but busy is the way we like it.

The Easter Dance School ran during the Easter Holidays on April 11th and 12th and was another huge success, it provides a great opportunity for children to have a taste of lots of different dance and theatre genres. We ran workshops on Street Dance, Musical Theatre, Acting & Performance, Modern Jazz & Theatre Craft, ZumbAtomic and Gymnastics all in 2 days! Our Easter and Summer Schools are open to all children from 6yrs+ and we have great feedback from both parents and pupils alike about how much they all enjoy themselves and learn so much. We work towards a short performance on the last day in which parents are invited to come along to watch and the children get to perform on stage and show off their new found skills too. We are running a Summer Dance School in July on Wednesday 25th and Thursday 26th at the Grange Hall in Southam from 10.30am – 1.30pm both days, just £35 per child for both days.

On Sunday 29th April we had a very busy exam centre with over 70 pupils taking their Ballet and Tap exams, boys and girls alike ranging from 4 years upwards. The pupils had been

working very hard to master the technique required and displayed some excellent work on the exam day itself, the examiner had travelled from Cambridge and made some very nice comments about their work. Once the pupils take an exam, they move up a grade to the next level which really boosts their confidence and self esteem as well as progressing their dance ability.

It’s going to be a busy summer ahead for LoveBallet Dance Company and its pupils, with new ZumbAtomic Classes starting too. ZumbAtomic is Zumba but for children, specific kid friendly routines jam packed with fun, it’s a absolutely brilliant class for all ages for both boys and girls – they will love it I can guarantee. Come along for a free trial to see

what its all about and join in the fun. Classes Wednesdays in Upper Boddington from 4yrs+ and Fridays in Southam.

If that’s not enough to get your heart racing, we are also working towards our LoveBallet Show, an Olympic Themed Show this year which will take place in July, all pupils are welcome to take part in the show and it’s a wonderful opportunity for pupils to dance on stage under the lights and perform to their hearts content watched by the proud eyes of their parents and loved ones.

ELECTRICAL INSTALLATIONS Are you abiding by the Law…?

In 2005 the Government introduced electrical safety rules into the Building Regulations for England and Wales.Because of this,most fixed electrical installation work carried out in homes, must by law, meet the Building Regulations.

who will notify LABC direct.

Part P states that anyone carrying out electrical installation work in a home must make sure that the work is designed and installed to protect people from fire and electric shocks.

Part P applies to newly-built homes and to any changes made to existing installations,including any parts that have been rewired. All electrical installation work in a garden,conservatory or outbuilding must also meet the Building Regulations.

Apart from some types of minor work, all electrical work needs to be reported to the Local Authority Building Control, or be carried out by an electrician who is registered by one of the Government-approved scheme providers, such as NICEIC, NAPIT or ELECSA

CMT & FsaLtl andd Waste Dispo recycling services

All electrical installation work needs to be certified under BS 7671 IET Wiring Regulations, 2008, (Amendment No.1,2011). This is especially important,as not only does it prove an electrical installation has been tested and is safe, solicitors will ask for these documents when selling a property.

Therefore, the advantages of using a registered electrician are: You will not have to pay high building control charges; The electrician can deal with everything for you; The electrician will arrange for you to receive a certificate that confirms the work conforms with Building Regulations;

“In short, it is against the law to undertake electrical installation work in the home without notification to LABC.”

You have access to a formal complaints procedure;

By law, all homeowners and landlords must be able to prove that all electrical installation work meets Part P, or they will be committing a criminal offence!

Alan Hodgkinson

You can choose to take out an insurancebacked warranty when the work is done.

In short it is against the law, to undertake electrical installation work in the home,without proper notification to LABC.

The Perfect Lawn

Clean and safe • No mowing • No weeds • No more muddy patches • Hard wearing • Unaffected by weather/ uv stabilized • Green and usable all year round • Perfect for pets Finding an artificial grass product that has the look of natural grass was never an option until recently.

But with developments in the last 203 years we can now offer you a choice of looks that will give you the dream lawn all year round. We can even fit a carpet that will look like a freshly mowed lawn in the middle of summer with a mixture of green fibres and beige to give that thatched look. We use a new monofilament fibre to the feel of the carpet is soft to the touch and friendler to animals.
