St Trinian's meets Fame meets Ballet Shoes. Eleven-year-old Lara Edgecombe has just found out she's going to ballet boarding school. Armed with leotards, leg warmers and an industrial supply of hairspray, she embarks on her first year at the exclusive Stavely Brookes, unaware of the strict rules and madcap adventures that lie ahead. Balancing academic studies and dance classes, Lara is thrown into a world of shared dorms, school traditions, eccentric teachers, daring pranks, cruel prefects and ambitious girls all wanting to be in the spotlight. Set in the 1970's, this is a heart-warming and humorous tale of dance, friendship and following your dreams.
