We’re moving!

Due to the uncertainty with the future of the Rotary hall seeking a full time occupant for the hall we’ve been left with no choice but to move.

Our last class at the Rotary Hall is Thursday the 1st May. From the 8th May we’ll be moving to the Chippenham Central Methodist Church Hall on Monkton Hill (just 1 street over). Same time, same cost. It is the street level entrance. Go through the blue door and the hall is the door on the left.

There is car parking at the council offices just past the hall that is free after 6pm.

We also have more news about the Thursday evening class. As the class has been full for nearly two years now, and is for all purposes a ‘closed group’, we will be dropping the word ‘Beginner’ from the class title. This means that you’ll no longer be ‘just’ doing beginner dances.

You’ll still get new beginner teaches but there will also be Improver and even the occasional low intermediate dances.

We’ll be making this change as part of the move to the new hall.

A warm and busy evening in Malmesbury. Everyone did brilliantly and we got through lots of dances!
