Jamaican and Trinidadian Independence

Hi,

Re: Keeping a dancer full of food/energy

Hi Katymac,

My dd was given a book called 'Nutrition for the dancer'. It includes recipes for healthy snacks, meals etc and there's also a chapter for the young dancer. I'd definitely recommend. Hth :)

Liberatus, Swindon

Hi,

I was talking to a mum last week, and she said her dd was trying for Liberatus this year. I'd not heard of this college and wondered if anyone knows any more?
