Senior Development Manager at The Royal Ballet School

[Royal Ballet School @RoyalBalletSch]

We have spent the last week reflecting on Queen Elizabeth II's remarkable life and her generous support of the School.

In the first of three videos, we look back at the School’s close connections with Her Majesty, starting with our shared home. https://t.co/dRF92BWvcf

We are deeply saddened by the death of Her Majesty the Queen and send our condolences to all who knew and loved her.

Her Majesty the Queen was our patron since the School was awarded its Royal Charter in 1956, and we will always be grateful for her generous support.
