Panto on ice is a hit |
|
Dickens was
brought to life at John Nike Leisuresport, Bracknell,
in December, in the form of the festive pantomime ‘A
Christmas Carol
on Ice’, to the delight of customers who flocked
in to watch the show.
Patrick Renn, Complex Manager, said:“Ticket sales
equalled last year’s high levels and visitors were
treated to the best show for some time. In Jon Bonny’s
first year as director, the skating was very
high quality and the production was very well organised.”
Polo, the John Nike Leisuresport polar bear mascot, received
a great reception on his first appearance at the pantomime.
He greeted members of the audience before and after the
show as well as popping up during the action.
Over the five-day run, £700 was collected for the
Network for Surviving Stalking, the chosen charity of
the Nike Group of Companies.

Top spots for Welsh ski team
|
The skiing
teams from a school that uses John Nike Leisuresport,
Llandudno, for training, fared very well in competitions
last year thanks to the expert coaching they receive
at the North Wales centre.
Teams from Lyndon School came both first and second
in the Welsh Junior Schools Championships and claimed
the top four spots in the North Wales Schools Championships.
Lyndon School is one of several in the local area where
children can select skiing as one of their physical
education activities.They attend the centre each week
for training from Ryan Grewcock, one of the centre’s
instructors.
