Dance ATM Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I am so glad I found this post I have been stalking our postman:-).My dd auditioned in london on the 15th of jan at 2.30.It was her first time to audition for the RBS.She really enjoyed the day and came out with a smile on her face.My daughter is 13 and we are not from london does anyone know what year she would be in if she was luckly enough to get in and also are there many places this year for her age group.Also when are we likely to hear.Sorry for all questions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frangapani Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 @ Dance ATM - when does she hit 14? If she is a year 9 academic school she will be looking at a year 10 SA place?? There are not many places for any year TBH :'( I think we will hear next week rather than this week - I seem to remember letters for finals coming out 2 weeks before so there was a mad dash looking for B&Bs, hotels etc?? Finals are on around 24th Feb if I remember correctly? Best of luck everyone F x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sniffymum Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Hi Tutu Cute - good luck to your sis. Is she a mid associate already? Were there any girls at the audition in the mid associates leotard? Seems there are quite a few going for Year 8 places and I'm not even sure there are any.

charlie4dancin Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Hi ATM if she doesn't turn 14 till sept I guess that means a yr 9 MA place Cx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tutu Cute Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 Hi sniffymum No my little sis is not an associate -im not sure if there were MA auditioning what colour do they wear? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swe Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Can I just check with those who know please-my DD auditioned for SA year 11 (she isn't a current SA) for Birmingham but we didn't tick lower school so I assume we won't hear anything 'til after all the finals-so will that be about early April? That is a looooong wait! Keeping realistic though-I heard there were only about 16 places??! Correct me if I'm wrong.. swe x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sniffymum Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Hi Tutu Cute - the mid associates were a dark blue, almost navy strappy leotard with The Royal Ballet School in small white letters on the left hip. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Ballerina Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Has anyone heard anything from Upper School auditions for Royal? My audition was the 11th and still waiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tutu Cute Posted February 1, 2012 Author Share Posted February 1, 2012 Hi sniffymum There were definitely girls there in navy leos but not sure if they were MAs it was a lot easier to tell for y7 auditions last year because of the distinctive white JA leos that only JA's wore!:]xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dance ATM Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Hi frangapani are there limited places for year 9 as well.The wait is killing me.Do you mind me asking is this your daughters first time to audition for white lodge. Do you think we will have to wait much longer.I was thinking that I would hear this week. My dd comes in from school each day hoping the letter has arrived. Best of luck to your dd too and if this is not your dd first time to audition I commend you for being able to go through this again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best of luck to your dd too and if this is not your dd first time to audition I commend you for being able to go through this again yes places are always limited - there are only 6 year 9 MAs in DDs class right now. She has auditioned for White Lodge every year, getting to finals for year 7. She realises there is naff all chance for year 10 but is prepared to show her face again anyway! (she doesn't give up that easily!!!) I honestly think the letters will be next week so am chilled out about the wait - I will start stressing from next week!!!!

Dance ATM Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 OMG Frangapani cant believe you and your dd have been through this every year.I have always known about the RBS but to me it was just my dd dream that would never happen and then last summer her teacher came to me and told me she would like her to audition.I was so shocked as was my daughter. We are from Ireland and my daughter was the only one asked to go.I am seeing now that maybe we have left it a bit late to start auditioning for a place in white lodge. My dd really enjoyed the day and I have always told her there is a very slim chance of getting in but in the back of my mind I was thinking it could happen for her.Thanks for making me see how hard it really is and well done to your dd for making it to finals in year 7 she must be a fantastic dancer.I wish her all the best this year and maybe this will be her luckly year x God I am so nervous about getting the letter now and more than likely giving my dd the bad news Thanks again Frangapani let me know how your dd gets on and ill let you know when we hear x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dance ATM Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Oh let me know if you hear anything over the weekend.I live in Dublin so mine will arrive later than yours.I was wondering does anyone know if i would get the results sent by email I got the audition time,dates ect sent by email followed by a letter and not enough postage was paid on the stamp so the letter arrived a week later.I was hoping that this letter would be different dont think I would last another week without any news Thanks x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BankruptMum Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Frangapani - your daughter's determination and guts are a credit to you both. Fingers crossed for her SA place, do you know how long you will have to wait for that result? xxxx 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balletla Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Hope you and DD bounce back Fran. Such a shame but well done for keeping on trying. I have heard of people getting no's for several years from years 7-11 and then being really successful at 6th form. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
