Who Teaches Little boppers?
Our Little Boppers classes are run by Ema Waites. We also have three of our senior students, Rio, Sarah and Rhoda, helping in the sessions to support the children. To find out more about our teachers and staff check out our meet the team page.
How much are little boppers classes?
Our Little Boppers classes are £6.50 per week which is paid on a half termly basis. You will be emailed an invoice which will include details of how to make payment. We are unable to offer refunds for missed classes. When children first join us we offer a 3 week trial for £19.50 which gives you the opportunity to make sure children settle into classes before you commit to paying for a full half term.
Where and when do Little Boppers classes take place?
All of our classes take place at Whitley Bay Young People's Centre which is located just behind Whitley Bay Ice Rink. We run 2 Little Boppers classes on Saturday Mornings. 9.30am - 10.15am (age 2 to 3) and 10.30am - 11.15am (age 4 to 5). To find out which class would be best suited to your little one please get in touch.
Do I need to stay with my child during their class?
You are welcome to wait in our reception area during your child's class. Refreshments are available during this time including tea, coffee and snacks. However, you don't have to wait, you're welcome to leave and come back in time for the end of class.
Will my child take part in any performances?
At the end of the Easter and Summer terms we invite the grown ups of our little ones into their Little Boppers class to watch what we have been working on throughout the term. At Christmas, our Little Boppers join our Juniors on stage in our annual Christmas Showcase at The Priory Theatre, Tynemouth.
What does my child need to wear for their class?
For Little Boppers, children should wear our Little Boppers / Purple Performing Arts uniform with suitable shoes, so they can move, dance and join in comfortably.
Uniform and dance shoes are available to purchase from our online shop.
Does my child need to bring anything to their class?
Children are welcome to bring a small drink to class with them. After their class we open the tuck shop so you're welcome to send your child with some money to spend on some after class treats. All money raised from the tuck shop goes towards fundraising for our summer show.
