Yes MDS covers boarding , but you still pay a means tested contribution

Is that the one with Anna Watkins ?

What a silly man !

I've constantly to remind mine that the kitchen is it a dance studio! It's normal for them to be constantly twirling and bending and sticking a leg up near an ear ....

What lovely news , thank you for the update , that is so encouraging x

I have 3 leotards in good condition and one a bit older no longer needed - they may end up In the bin so any one need any spares let me know !

No first week of August

Can also recommend the bun heads ones they've lasted for absolutely ages and are practically invisible underneath jazz pants and costumes - both my boys have used them

Sands foot - any idea what age it is for junior/ senior - I can't see it .....

Reverse frog ?!

I bet you will be so busy once you are there that we will have withdrawal symptoms from your posts ! Enjoy the build up and the anticipation !

The boarding costs were heavily subsidised by the MDS in this case ! How very sad to have what should be a wonderful experience for your DD tarnished in this way - hope it can be resolved somehow - big hugs !

One of my DS classmates lived close to the school and started off as a day pupil but felt so out of things that he became a weekly boarder ....probably not an option for u but just to say I know it can be very hard not feeling included !

You don't have to afford them ! All places there are supported by MDS funding , which is means tested !

Mine was 2 years ago I think !

Plus you don't get the momento of the lovely Royal Ballet Floral street stationary !

Indeed ! Even if you wait longer to receive it it seems more humane !!

I can't believe It's 10 minutes since any one posted ! Welcome to the first stage of the roller coaster ! Oh no ! I typed too slowly and half a dozen more posts have happened ......I thought waiting for the post was worse , but now I'm sure email is worse ...... Hope relief comes soon !????

No and no ! For year 7 entry and not crucial for yr 8 either !

I wasn't sure if they were unisex ......There are definitely boys but also some girls who have grown out of theirs - contact penny for details !

Several Elmhurst Blazers for sale size C2 second hand . Call Penny Bailey 07816758505 for details

Really - so sorry then I've been misinformed ....

All I know is that vocational uniform ( not formal ie blazer etc worn for posh occasions) is covered by MDS for Elmhurst but not White Lodge , not sure about Tring and Hammond ! If you do buy in advance just keep receipts and submit them against your MDS uniform allowance if you get one !
