Ballroom and Latin Silent Disco Raises over £600 for Comic Relief

Last weekend, our dancers came together for the crazy idea of a Ballroom and Latin Silent Disco! The aim was to dance the night away in silence to raise money for Comic Relief. Our Ballroom and Latin American silent disco aimed to raise £250 for charity. We’re excited to announce that we were able to raise over £450 with a number of students donating to our Just Giving page if they were unable to attend.

How Did The Ballroom and Latin Silent Disco Work?

Students were given wireless headphones and had the freedom to choose from two channels playing Ballroom and Latin American music. We even had a third channel playing an ‘Ultimate Party Classics’ playlist for those who fancied something different. All they needed to do to switch channels was press one button and the headphones did the rest.

We believe that dancing is not just a form of exercise but also a great means of self-expression and joy. The silent disco idea allowed students to interpret music in whatever way they wanted, but also carry on conversations if they were sat down.

It was a unique and fun experience that had everyone moving and grooving (and sometimes singing!) on the dance floor.

We would like to thank everyone who attended and supported our Ballroom and Latin Silent Disco. It’s heartwarming to see how our school can come together to make a difference. The funds we raised will go to Comic Relief and Learn To Dance are topping up the fund to cover the cost of the equipment hire, taking the total to over £600!

Overall, our Ballroom and Latin American silent disco was a night to remember. It was a fantastic way to have fun while supporting a great cause. We’re thrilled with the amount of money we raised and grateful to everyone who helped make it happen. Following such positive feedback, stay tuned for our next silent event!
