Happymum Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Congratulations Balletqueen! Is it for year 7 entry? So sorry Gowiththeflo, I imagine if my DD receives a "no" I will be thinking it trough over and over again, wondering what I could have done better etc. The thing is there is nothing we can/could do! Sending you hugs. Good to know your DD is fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zacharovitti Posted January 28, 2015 Author Share Posted January 28, 2015 Wow balletqueen! fantastic news and huge congratulations to your DD! We have been told only 3-4 children will go to finals for Y8 so you must be VERY proud of her! Good luck for finals! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flora11 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Congratulations to all those yeses! Fantastic news for all. comiserations for the nos, we've had plenty of those! Balletqueen, as Zacharovitti said, an invite to Year 8 finals is a huge achievement. Had she auditioned last year too? Just wondered if she'd been to finals before. My dd auditioned for Year 7 last year and did not make finals, this year she seems even more determined but I suspect it'll be another 'no'.

Dreamy11 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Hi, no we haven't been to finals before so totally in the dark. I think panic is now setting in although I guess it could be like people said last year and none are successful. I guess the finance side is a big concern too, does anyone have any experience of any getting any funding, scholarships etc? So sorry to those who have no's .

Bonnie2011 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Happymum. I am sure your daughter will do very well as she is a beautiful little dancer. I am keeping my fingers crossed for you and everyone else who is still waiting for results.☺️☺️ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piccolo Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Yes Happymum, pretty sure you'll have something to celebrate shortly! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zacharovitti Posted January 29, 2015 Author Share Posted January 29, 2015 Just another silly question to add Happymum's one! (Everyone of us is trying to kill the wait in some way...). I was wondering if the judges were the same in all venues: in London we had Mr. Mark Annear (Head of Outreach and Access) and, if I'm not wrong, Mrs Hope Keelan (Artistic Teacher and Programme Manager WL). What about Manchester, Bath ecc.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lema Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 It was a man and a lady in Birmingham but I'm really sorry I can't remember their names?!? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamy11 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 There were 4 I believe in Manchester, 2 men, 2 women Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancing pickles Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I think there were 3 in Manchester, Mr Annear, and Mr Powney. I don't recall the ladies name. We were ecstatic when my dd received her yes for white lodge yesterday. Sending good luck wishes to everyone who is still waiting to hear 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happymum Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Well, I finished work, checked my emails just now - no news :-( Could it be that we need to wait another day or two for Bath results? Great news Dancing pickles! How exciting! Piccolo and Twoballerinas - thank you for encouraging words about my DD :-) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happymum Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Just to add - there were two people in Bath panel. Mr Annear and a lady - teacher from WL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dancing pickles Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Not quite sure what I've done there, but my dd is auditioning for a y7 place balletqueen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZooZoo Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 So exciting reading these posts and remembering what it was like last year! The WL finals is a great experience - such a lovely day - but you start to mentally "move in" and that is not an easy emotion to manage. There will be PTA members at the finals at WL so anyone attending finals should go over and have a big chat to them. They will all be happy to answer all your questions. I was bit shy of approaching them at first, but as soon as we got chatting I pestered them for a good hour or two while we waited for the kids to finish. Getting to the finals is a bit achievement. Plus, although it's not certain, there is a good chance of getting MA if you don't get WL, I would have thought.... 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flora11 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Well it's a no for my dd from WL. Was not surprised as she didn't feel it had gone amazingly but of course disappointed. Has anyone else heard? We auditioned in London for a Year 8 place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishballetmom Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 We received our expected no for the finals, she was trying for y8 and only a few will go through I am sure. We did get Priority Waiting List for Summer School though! I am proud of her for achieving that even if no places come available! 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belljul Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Sorry to hear that Flora11. Trying for year 8 is very tough! I hope your daughter won't be too disheartened. No word here yet and going slighty insane. We auditioned in London. All my DD friends have heard (and have done very well) as they auditioned in Manchester!

irishballetmom Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Thanks but coming from having only a few classes a week we know she was behind for her age compared to others, she doesn't know yet as still in school but even wait list was more than we expected, so DH and I are actually pretty excited for her, even wait list is an achievement for RBS lol, at least in our eyes! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
