BBA

My dd thinks there are 12 on the dance course but more on theatre arts course.

I think they get 10 for year 7, don't know about year 9 but guess if someone leaves then it frees up an MDS, and for 6th form it's DADA's so different funding completely !

Hi Huddsballetmum,

Is your DD auditioning on 11th ?

Not sure if this link will work, but a ballet dancer friend of mine sent me this today and I thought you'd all be interested. I was mesmerised ! such beauty and determination .

I thought this topic was about open days ???, however I would like to say that I went to Bush Davies many years ago. The boarding accommodation was archaic to say the least. We had to do all our own laundry from the age of 11, had no weekend activities laid on and the house mistress/matron was unkind, unfriendly and unapproachable, however we formed friendships that are still going strong 25 years later. We bare no scars ( or very little) and the training ( which I'm sure is what you should all be most interested in ) was second to none - well perhaps second to RB !!! Many of us went on to have extremely successful careers and be fulfilled in life, so please don't let accommodation put you off. Children are extremely adaptable and its good for them to share their rooms and perhaps have less space than they are used to at home and don't forget they have a fantastic time together. Lets face it, if they are going to have a career in the ballet world they are going to be in worse places than these at the beginning !!!

Hi Wildflowers - i think it stands for 'pain in the a***' !

I could be wrong but I generally find A & E a bit of a PITA !!

everything !!! i'll PM you my number !

Hi Regatta,

I'm probably too late - but do you still have any uniform left ?

Many thanks

Hello miss.pointe,

Mine is with Ageas, covers all the same as yours and was £66 for the year ! I'd shop around a bit more especially if youre only teaching 1 class per week at the mo.

The dates are on the website today !!!!

Hi,

Does anyone know the audition dates for WL yet ?

Done !

Disney Store ?!!!

How lovely to hear some very positive comments about Tring

It's all cool !! ????

I wonder if the management at RBS are any different or indeed at Elmhurst.?. I know from my training that there are always the favourites and those less favoured at vocational schools.

Hi, It's the first time I've posted on here and I really enjoy reading all the articles and advice etc, however following the "ballet school ranking " debate, I'm wondering if anyone has positive information regarding Tring, as according to Ofsted it is an outstanding school, infact the ONLY outstanding vocational school, so surely there must be some quality teaching going on there ?
