Ex Hillview Student awarded a prestigious scholarship

 

Hannah Rotchell, aged 20, an ex Hillview Student, and long standing member of The Geraldine Fox Theatre/Dance Academy in Tonbridge, has been awarded one of just two prestigious top scholarships at “The London Contemporary Dance School” (The Place) in London. 

The Award, now known, as the “Charlotte Kirkpatrick Award” is awarded to one boy, and one girl in Year 2 of the BA(Hons) degree at the end of Year 2 to help them continue with their studies in their final Year of the course. It is awarded “in recognition of effort, talent and potential” for a future career within the Dance world to a student with “exceptional potential as a future Dance Artist”. 

Whilst at Hillview School Hannah also spent 5 years  at “The Centre for Advanced Training” – (CAT)  at Laban in Greenwich, London between the ages of 13 and 18. Many previous holders of this Award have gone on to have professional careers in the world of Contemporary Dance, and Hannah hopes to be able to join them in due course as she continues her studies in London. She is very proud of her Tonbridge roots and heritage. 

Congratulations Hannah !!!
