Youngsters from across the Grantham area were given a chance to shine on Friday at the Colsterworth Festival of Performing Arts schools day.
Held at The Meres Leisure Centre, the schools day followed the dance element of the festival held in Corby Glen last month.
Festival chairman Julia Kerby said: “The schools day at The Meres was a great success, with nine schools entering the different categories.
“The atmosphere on the day was amazing and everyone felt that they were amongst friends. Our adjudicators all commented on how well all the children performed and what an enjoyable day it had been for everyone.”
The final festival day was in Colsterworth on Saturday, where two venues hosted music events while a third hosted drama.
Mrs Kerby said: “Yet again the friendly atmosphere of our festival was commented on and all three adjudicators praised both the high standard of the performers and the smooth running of the event.
“It’s hard to believe that our 17th festival has come to an end but plans are already in place for our 2014 festival.
“Grateful thanks must be given to the dedicated and hard working committee of seven and the tireless band of volunteers who have made this years event such a resounding success!”
