There are so many little kids warming up together, going through their programs and all dressed up! It&#8217;s definitely a different scene that what we are normally used to!

It was quite impressive to see!<\/p>\n<p>All the junior and senior teams did free dance today in the practices. After all the practices finished, we had the draw and then DINNER!
