anondancer_15 Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Not sure if there's already a thread for this - couldn't seem to find it! was just wondering if anyone had applied for the Tring Classical Ballet Academy and heard anything back yet? Had an email at the beginning of this week saying info would be going out in a few days but not heard since... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan McNulty Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Hello Anon! I've modified the title slightly to make it a bit clearer. There have been quite a few threads on Tring CBA over the last couple of years relating mostly to auditions for those years. They show up if you search on "Tring Classical Ballet" (the search facility doesn't like CBA). Although the threads won't answer your specific query they may give you some good background information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna C Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 This is where use of the "tags" system comes into its own. I tag any threads regarding Tring CBA with the tag "CBA" - which means that if you then click on the tag, all other threads with the same tag are listed: http://www.balletcoforum.com/index.php?/tags/forums/CBA/ Janet is correct, there are LOTS of threads on CBA! If I tag this thread too, threads with the same tags will also be visible at the bottom of the page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxi4ballet Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 It may take a little while longer to hear from them, as the school is on the Easter holiday break, and I think there will only be a skeleton staff there at the moment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swanprincess Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Welcome to the forum, balletmum1979! Best of luck to your DD for the audition I've not heard anything from Tring regarding my audition for the CBA yet, I applied a few months ago....

Heartbroken-ballet-mum Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Thank you. We also had an email today offering her a place at ENBS Juniors. DD loves her ballet and would do it every single day if she could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nancy19 Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Still nothing from Tring CBA for us yet either! Slightly worried as I missed closing date last year, then applied for November audition but DD was ill and couldn't attend! Will she ever get to audition!

rainbowmagic Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 When my daughter auditioned last Nov the only communication I had from them was an email just a few days beforehand, informing me which group audition group my daughter was in, and instructions about want to wear, where to go and what time to turn up etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anondancer_15 Posted April 16, 2015 Author Share Posted April 16, 2015 I recieved an email with all the audition details last week, phew. quite excited! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nancy19 Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Today we received an email from Tring with audition times etc. obviously they were off for Easter and our application somehow slipped through the net, even though I posted it in December! She's really looking forward to it now x 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heartbroken-ballet-mum Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Nancy21, How old is your DD? Which group is she auditioning in? My DD is 8 and is in group 1. Nice early start for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nancy19 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Hi balletmum79 my daughter is 12 so in group 3. Audition is at 10.45, so not to early for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petalviolet Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Sorry if this has been asked before but can't find anything on the audition email itself- does it matter if it's tights or socks for the little ones? DD has managed to lose her good pair plus just this morning has enhanced her leotard with the addition of large paprika stain to the backside. This bodes well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna C Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Oh dear! I would always go with socks for little ones. If I remember rightly, I think Groups 1-3 wear socks in class. Not 100% sure because my dd went straight into the Senior groups. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petalviolet Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Socks! Good thank you very much.....any ideas about how to get paprika stains out......much appreciated... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna C Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Vanish? The "Sensitive" one doesn't seem to bleach things even after pre-wash soaking. Or a different leotard... :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petalviolet Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Sadly me being the wide eyed innocent moon calf that I am just thrust it into a normal wash which means it's doomed. If anyone asks.... DD was in kitchen practising her DARK ARTS of potion making (Potter fan) with yesterday's soup ingredients and what better way to clean your hands than a brief wipe.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balletmum20 Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Yes defo sock, and groups 1 and 2 have socks in class. Good luck, my dd is in group 2 and loves it xx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petalviolet Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Thank you - it's her first audition ever for anything and I couldn't feel more out of my league. It will be very exciting to actually be at Tring though- after lurking on this forum for so long- it will sort of bring Balletco to life! Strange to think DD's little feet will be following (however briefly) in the illustrious footsteps of some of the dancing children on here! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nancy19 Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 In November 2 girls from my daughters ballet school auditioned. Just checked with one of the mums, she told me they auditioned on the Sunday and had the results on the Wednesday after. Her daughter got a letter saying they felt she was talented but couldn't offer a place at the moment and to audition again, so she was there again Sunday, the other girl got a straight no letter, saying thank you, no mention of auditioning again. So it seems we are waiting for one of three letters, hopefully everyone gets a YES!!!!! xx good luck, hopefully tomorrow will be the day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balletmum20 Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 When we auditioned I think results took about 10 days, not heard about letters about being too talented? There normally yes or no but please audition again x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southerndancemum Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 DD auditioned last Nov on the Sunday and we got our yes on the Thursday after hence me seeing how everyone was doing today. I guess they have had bank holiday so hopefully tomorro for you all xx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balletmum20 Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 The one thing I do know which may delay the results, is that the cba classes are having there assessment this Sunday so maybe they are waiting for those to see where there are spaces 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
