Tiny dancers on competition stage

TWO tiny ballerinas are set to compete in a major competition this weekend.

Six-year-olds Amelie Bish and Amber-May Swabey have both been learning to dance at Plymouth's Little Wings Dance School since they were toddlers. Now the two girls are set to represent the school and Plymouth in the All England Dance Regional Finals this weekend.

Amelie, who attends Bickleigh Down Primary School, was aged just one when she began baby ballet classes. Amber-May, who goes to Shakespeare Primary School, started at Little Wings when she was two.
