It’s hard to believe that the Holiday season is already here and in full swing! Thank you for your continuous support this season. It is not an understatement to say, its been another tough year. But we are so incredibly thankful for the support our Footprints Fam has shown us during this crazy time!
As the winter season is upon us and of course, cold and flu season with it – please be sure to notify the studio of any absences your dancer may have through your parent portal. Keep up the great mask wearing and hand sanitizing in the studio!
Our Holiday Spirit Squad and Competitive Team were amazing together for the Nutty Nutcracker. We were so pleased to be back on stage with a real live audience once again. Thank you to all the families who made the show possible!
Monthly Intention – Jolly Blessings
Each month of our dancing year will highlight one of those ‘life lessons’ that dance gives us. This month we are working on incorporating JOLLY BLESSINGS into our dance studio. It’s the holiday season after all and we can all afford to have a little bit more joy and gratitude in our lives. Whether that be keeping the magic of Santa alive or instilling some more belief in yourself. We hope to foster some whimsy and fun in our dancers and Footprints Fam this month!
Fill the Sleigh Campaign
With the holiday season coming, Footprints Dance Centre is excited to continue with our Fill the Sleigh Campaign in December. We will be hosting this campaign in support of Domestic Abuse Services Oxford.
Dancers are encouraged to donate canned food items and new toiletries to help us fill the sleigh. All of these items will be put directly back into the community that helps to support and shape us all. Please feel free to donate any non-perishable food items (school lunch items like snacks, drink boxes, cookies and crackers, tea/coffee/juice, jam, cereal, cake mixes, pudding/jello, tuna) as well as new toiletries (deodorant, toothpaste, shampoo, face wash, etc) and any additional needs (baby wipes, size 6 diapers, sippy cups, new twin bed sheet sets, tissue boxes, dryer sheets, cutlery, drinking glasses, journals/notebooks).
Our Fill the Sleigh Campaign kicks off on December 1!
Progress Reports
Progress reports are a great tool to take a peek inside the dance classroom and see how your dancer is progressing this dance season. All reports are written by your dancer’s teacher and individualized for each dancer.
Progress reports will be distributed to students during the week of December 6-11.
Holiday Ornaments
Each year we hand out a special FDC ornament to all of our dancers. This year dancers will receive their 2021-22 ornament during the week of December 13-18.
