🖤 JUST WOW 🖤
Archie’s mum received this beautiful email from the incredible Peter Darling who was clearly blown away by Archie’s talent.
@_archie.spence_ you clearly left a lasting impact.
Just had to share this! 🩷🖤
⭐️ ⭐️⭐️What a night!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Archie won the most promising dancer of the whole festival trophy. ⭐️⭐️⭐️Archie also won the Pat Yarborough bursary award, which is £500 towards his on going training/ classes⭐️⭐️⭐️. Watching him dance this week has been incredible, I am his biggest critic but he has made me cry, given me goosebumps, and made me smile, I am so incredibly proud! His constant spinning, cartwheels, flips and hard work is paying off! Big thankyou to his teachers and especially to @acda_dance_academy for everything!

🌟 ARCHIE 🌟
Archie auditioned back in January for the role of Billy Elliott. He impressed the panel with his incredible talent for dance and attended recall after recall and made it to the acclaimed ‘Billy School’ where he trained for two weeks during his Easter holidays. An experience of a lifetime.
Although, the outcome wasn’t meant to be this time, we truly believe this achievement should be celebrated.
Anyone who watches Archie dance can see the talent and star quality that this boy has in bucket loads.
Archie’s determination and drive, just hours after finding out this disappointing news is unbelievably inspiring.
ACDA are forever behind you.
Proud always,
Miss A
