 General Dress Guidelines for all students:

If the student is not participating in a class, they should have a
tracksuit or similar over leotards and tights as these are not appropriate streetwear.

In no class will students be permitted to wear crop tops,
bra tops or any outfit exposing their midriff.

Please do not wear ballet/jazz shoes when outdoors as it wears them out.

Hair:

For all classes girls should wear their hair tied back neatly,
with fringes pinned so as not to fall across their face.
Buns are essential for ballet classes. Hair that is too short for a bun may be worn in a neat ponytail or held back with a wide headband.

We recommend you do your daughter's hair for class before school in the morning, to save time and hassle in the afternoon.
