Singing and dancing at Slough Library

Singing and dancing was enjoyed by young people at Slough Library as they beat the half-term blues and got creative.

Performance poetry, story-telling and a trip to Windsor's Theatre Royal were all enjoyed during the week of activities, held as part of a Bronze Arts Award, which started on Monday, February 17.

On Saturday, a performance was staged by participants in the programme as they put everything they had learnt during the week to good use.

Audience development manager at the High Street venue, Gabby Koening said: "We had some really nice performances, I was very impressed.

"The whole week went extremely well, the kids really enjoyed themselves.

"It was a real success."

The Arts Award is a nationally-recognised qualification that highlights young people's achievements through the arts.

The group, aged between 12 and 22, all volunteered at Slough libraries last summer.

They were given the chance to gain the bronze award as a thank you for their help.
