pas de chat Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Yes we not 6th Form but Junior Dance. We thought we might have heard by now too as DD auditioned on the 13th! On the flip side the nice thing about not knowing is that you are still in the game! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dance2013 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Not expecting anything but a No as my dd isn't really ballet more jazz and she was very disappointed on the time they spent on the jazz section of the audition and thought they were definitely looking for more classical dancers than anything else, although if you are lucky to get a place you can go down the jazz route in year 2!

Guest Autumn days Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 This thread was started to discuss 6th form auditions so To save too much confusion, can I respectfully ask that comments about lower school are kept to one of the lower school threads - or maybe start one just for Tring lower school 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mad house Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Hi I wonder if anyone would possibly be able to tell me what the funding audition is like ? And also what's expected from you eg another solo etc ? Thanks in advance 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Autumn days Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Ooh, Mad House, does that mean that you have had good news or are you just planning ahead? Fingers crossed!! I really cannot be sure but I don't think that they have to do another solo. I have an idea that it is just a ballet class and then some are invited to see the physio. Can any one add anything to that? Surely it must be soon now if the letters are not out or on their way already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad house Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Hi mum in a spin No I haven't heard I was just curious as to what the funding audition consisted of. Thanks for the info not that I think she'll be offered another audition :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ecarte Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Hi Mad house. DD did the funding audition last year. They had to do a ballet class and then they learnt a jazz routine in class. After that some were selected for a physio examination. DD thought is was quite relaxed and she enjoyed the whole experience, even the physio was charming and chatty. Hope this helps. Good luck to you all and may the wait be mercifully short! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad house Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Thanks Ecarte I hope the letter comes tomorrow as constant texts from dd throughout the day is driving me only Ever so slightly mad :0 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Autumn days Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Oh, OK Mad House, I was hoping that the letters were coming out! I hope we don't ahve long to wait either as it is only 2 weeks til the finals now and would need to make arrangements if dd is lucky enough to get that far. Still not sure she could go even with a dada but taking it one step at a time! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Autumn days Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Does anyone have an estimate of how many they looked at, how many are usually asked to go to he final nd how many places and DaDas might be available for the dance course? Does everyone offered a place get invited to the final at 6th form level? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanceandDrama123 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Hi there, all new to this!!! Dd auditioned for drama on the 17th and then dance on the 30th, and we still haven't heard anything for dance yet alone drama. DD said she'd talked to a girl at her drama audition and they said the results would be posted this week or next? Bit of a poor show as at the drama one we weren't told anything about results and the principal wasn't even there! I'm slightly panicking as it's dd's birthday on Monday and we are away, I don't want her elder sister ringing with bad news!! :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CouldDoBetter Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 We were there this Monday and the head told us that it may be delayed because of half ter! When we were there at the end of January the principal said that the letters would go out at the end of the first week in February - but in fairness to him, he probably did not realise that there would be a half term in the month when he made the promise!

sugarplumsmum Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Well it was addressed to me so just couldn't wait its a recall for the funding audition, it says there are a 'number' of students being seen on the day so expecting lots of other happy children opening letters on here today. it has come with a Dada declaration of income form, does anyone know if I'm meant to just sign the front then post it or add/ send any paperwork with it? Good luck everyone x 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad house Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Omg wow congratulations to you and your dc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ecarte Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Congrats to your DD Sugarplumsmum. If I remember correctly just put your income bracket on the form the supporting documentation bit comes afterwards if you are lucky enough to be awarded a DADA after the funding audition. At this stage I think it is used to work out the sums bit for the school. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
