Young people in Bicester are being given a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to take part in the Olympic celebrations.

OYAP Trust is looking for 30 budding performers to take part in a dance project which will form part of two countywide Olympic events: in Oxford, on July 9, and again, in Stonor Park, near Henley, on July 21. Rehearsals start during half-term and continue throughout June.

The dance is part of a Tree of Light project, which involves people of all ages from across Oxfordshire and the Thames Valley.

As part of the London 2012 Olympic legacy, children have been involved in projects exploring the science and art of trees.
