She will miss you all, as will I". Louise Dance

It will end an unbroken stretch of attendance by one or more of our children that has covered more than 20 years. Is this a record?!

Our association with the music centre, in its various venues and guises, has had a positive effect on us all and for both children and parents this legacy will be contiued in different ways into the future."
