What’s New 2011

We like to make incremental improvements from each years‟ Festival to ensure we are „moving with the times‟ and the Festival is as successful as we can make it. These changes are based on feedback we receive from all of our participants and supporting teachers as well as our experienced adjudicators. We are happy to receive the feedback at any time, please see our Contacts page on how to do this.

 

A summary of changes for 2012 is as follows
