More than 100 Dover school children will be dancing in the street and in front of the Big Screen in the Market Square on Friday as part of the Big Dance Schools Pledge world record attempt.

The Guinness World Record challenge is part of Big Dance 2012, and linked events are taking place across the country, the same day the Olympic Torch arrives in the UK.

South East Dance, in association with Dover District Council and the BBC, has arranged for groups and individuals to perform the dance and take part in the world record attempt.

Joining hundreds of thousands of young people across the UK and 20 other countries around the world, pupils from Priory Fields School in Dover, will be putting their best foot forward.

The schools have been enjoying the Olympic-inspired choreography of internationally renowned choreographer Wayne McGregor with its themes and images from different sports.
