The Stella School of Dance took to the stage at the Norwich Theatre Royal to perform a matinee and evening performance to raise as much money as possible for the school's chosen charity.

The principal chose the Stroke Association to raise funds and awareness for.

Together the members of the school and the audience raised £973 during a bucket collection.

The performance showcased the talents of 218 pupils from three years old to adults with striking routines and sensational costumes.

A spokesman for the Stroke Association said: 'Thank you to the Stella School of Dance for raising a fantastic £973 at their recent show.'
