Thirteen girls and eight boys from St Peter’s Primary School, East Bridgford, Orston Primary School, Flintham Primary School and Cropwell Bishop Primary School took part in the session at the leisure centre.
They were taught dance routines choreographed by Year Nine pupils.
The pupils performed a group dance routine to One Direction’s One Way Or Another and individual routines in front of teachers and parents.

Year 12 dance teacher Miss Sarah Allcock, who co-ordinated the session, said: “They put on a brilliant performance.
“For the Year Nine dancers it was a case of them learning their skills and being able to pass them on to someone else.”
All the children were given certificates for taking part in the session.
Year Nine pupils Katie Smith and Charlotte Turton led the group dance and helped to lead the individual routines.
