  1. My dd has just finished one of her most favourite summer school 4 th year she's been , last night with a show that put others to Shame . The Sara Packham summer school run by tutugirl of here , not only stretched my daughter to her highest ability but nurtured her in a very friendly family orientated way . I can't praise the teachers more for what a lovely week . I have had a fantastic often missed chance to see all her talents ,now she's away at fulltime training by the amazing 2 shows yesterday . Every child was given there chance to shine and show there talents . This is one of my top recommendations for anyone who wants to try somewhere new . There is mixed abilitys both vocational students from all the top dance schools and local dance school s . The teachers were Ex professionals from Estonia ballet company , BRB and ENB. She had a lovely week and it was very reasonably priced well worth a look at for next year if anyone's thinking that far ahead X

  2. My dd goes to a vocational school and only has one RAD class a week , she's recently just taken her RAD intermediate ballet exam and got 100% . She practiced most nights with the DVD which I'm sure helped . The best thing I ever bought ;) although she has lots of ballet all week only one RAD class .

  3. My dd s starting the diploma course in sept she's been at the school since yr 7 age 11 so if any senior students want to get in touch I can pass there number s to her as she's prob got lots of advice for any questions you have also I know of some lovely accomadation that's about to go on the list that's empty :)

  4. When my dd s went to Hammond I just got a letter from the doctor saying in his opinion dd was fit and well and had no medical conditions and was fit enough to attend a vocational dance school , there was no form and this seemed enough I did it for both dd s it cost about £25 wereas for elmhurst it was a full medical sheet at £100 hope this helps x

  5. I've a friends dd who s going she s only yr 6 sept is there anyone who dd same age willing to let me pass on her phone number as she s a bit shy and is having second thoughts , thought it might be nice if she could chat to another girl to feel like she know s someone before she goes :)

  6. My dd has orthotics in her converse from physio , there ideal as they fit in perfect in a size bigger I struggle to get them in other trainer s also has to be flat with no support to fit them in . That was only reason I was asking Im very aware about support needed and would nt put her in them if I did nt think they were suitable it was just a question of if they were aloud canvas and and signs lines ect on them or if I had to find some that would fit her orthotics s in and were totally plain

  7. Do any elmhurst mum s know if they can wear canvas trainers ie converse or do they have to be totally plan no names, also can they have a thin coloured line around the edge of sole. I've found a pair of plan black canvas trainer s but they have a thin White line around the sole, thank s in advance x

  8. Sorry choccy, we had such a rush to get back for a show . I did nt read the forum the day before as I'd no signal in Chester, to see you were coming :( . That's such a shame as I'd have liked the dd to have met . We had lovely but very quick morning at elmhurst the yr group were all there to meet us . My dd and her friend were made to feel very welcome and now are buzzing with excitement for sept x very anticlimax day as she was sad to leave Hammond , some very happy memory s,fantastic teachers and lovely friends not to mention her
