AN all singing, all dancing talent show proved a huge success at Great Dunmow Primary School.

Children aged seven to 11 took part in the final stages of the school’s show on Saturday. The finalists had to earn the right to perform having been put through auditions. The best picked, from year three to six, had one month to add the finishing touches to their act for the grand final.

The acts were very varied but the overall winner was dancer Ellen Breeze. Singing group Pearls came second, and a Comedy Act came third.

A school spokesman said: “The event was awesome and the acts were truly amazing.

“The audience enjoyed the show a lot and it was packed out. We could have sold tickets twice over. Thank you all for coming.”
