I am beside myself with pride!
My beautiful, wonderful, talented and lovely daughter Katie, has won the first "Holt's Got Talent" competition!
We are so amazingly proud of her!
Singing on Stage
We live in a small village, not far from Bath in Wiltshire. It has an amazing community spirit and there is always lots going on. We have many clubs and organisations and a very thriving and brilliant Amateur Dramatic Society. They decided to hold a competition along the lines of "Britian's Got Talent" and they had the auditions last week. Katie got through, along with 14 other acts, ranging from pianists, dancers, bands through to singers, with ages ranging from 10 years old right through to OAP's.
Katie decided to sing "Colours of the Wind" from Disney's Pocahontas. She sang totally unaccompanied! She is only 13 years old, but she showed a maturity far beyond her years on the stage.
I have to say, that as her voice rang out over the audience, I got covered in goosebumps and experienced one of the happiest and proudest moments of my life.
Receiving her prize, a beautiful bowl, a certificate and £50.00 prize money.
With the Judges
Well done Katie - our own Wondergirl, because you are wonderful and I wonder how on earth I could have produced such an amazing person!
We love you so very much!

Katie - you are so brave - i couldn't do that. Well done x
Such Happiness! lovely pictures! I bet your cheeks are hurting from smiling so much! Congratulations to you both! But Pippa, does this mean that you can't get her in the kitchen to cook dinner for you now that she's a celebrity, so you can get in the studio? ;)

Hi Kate!! Hehe - yes think I will have to do all the cooking now - unless I talk her into making lots of "Victory Meals" lol! Lovely to hear from you xx
Congratulations! Beautiful girl and proud mom :)
I didn't know your daughter could sing...and she looks much older than 13 on stage. Great Job Katie...I know you are both proud =D
Congrat. to your daughter !!
Big hug
Thank you so much Jael, Lynn and Lydia.
Katie has been so thrilled to read all your lovely comments!
Way to go Katie!!!
I can fully understand your feelings of motherly pride and wonder Pip...I also have an amazingly talented daughter, well actually two...but one is not following the path of singing at this stage. Sophie never ceases to amaze me with her talent...I am in awe...just as you are.
