SECONDARY school students put on their dancing shoes to teach youngsters about global cultures.

Fifteen travel and tourism students from Langley Park School for Girls, Hawsbrook Lane, Beckenham, performed Dances From Around The World, for 120 pupils from Pickhurst Junior School, Pickhurst Lane, West Wickham.

There were performances of dances from four countries Ireland, Italy, USA and Cuba and the seven-year-olds were encouraged to join in.

Langley Park student Hollie Sands, 17, said: "We wanted to try a different way of teaching children about history and culture. It was very enjoyable."
