Sinéad Sheppard’s School of Dance
Due to recent developments and government directive to close all schools, colleges, play schools etc, we here at the school feel that as we deal with large groups of young students we too will close for a 2 week period, effective immediately.
Our students, staff and families health will always be our main priority.

Our aim would be to reopen on Monday 30th March, should the government announce it is safe to do so and work through the original two week Easter holiday break, we will ensure that all missed classes during the enforced closure are made up.
Should the government recommend us remaining closed for a further period, we will extend our third term from May until the end of June.

We appreciate your support and understanding at this time.
