  1. KS Dance has 2 open days (free of charge!) in November. Join in classes! Go have a look! Ps Link for tickets thru their Instagram page! Pps Hammond Open day this Saturday!! 😁😁
  2. We’re 7 yrs on and I still can’t get used to it! 😢 Dropped off yesterday ready for today. Good luck everyone starting off or coming to the end hope it’s a good year for everyone 🍀
  3. Hiya if teacher is miss Agar then it will be a towel (white hand towel!) still got ours 🤣
  4. Very sad to hear this my sincere condolences x
  5. Another fab show today by the Hammond! It’s so nice to go back to see it well done 🎉🎉
  6. Dd will only use Capezio tights - convertibles! Nothing else will do haha! They keep their colour and don’t hole or ladder they last absolutely ages!
  7. Hi funnybunny yes most are still available please message me which ones you want x
  8. Hi All new to me - yes I do! Please message me x
  9. Mummytoizzy ive sent you a new message with sizes x
  10. Hi sorry only just seen your post! just re-read my original post it’s not very clear is it 😜 I’ll check all the sizes and get back to you in the morning - I’ll private message you
  11. Don’t forget the taster days at Hammond too! I know there’s a year 5 taster day but I’m sure there was one for upper school (or was that just for Hammond yr11’s!) I’m sure someone else will be able to tell you x
  12. Oh the hair!!!!!! My dd was very fussy on her JA hair! If I didn’t do it perfect she made me take it out and redo it haha! Needless to say I made sure that didn’t happen often haha! Oh and dads, you better get practising too! As there were a few times when DH had to do it too! (Ps us mums were always on hand to do the odd extra head at class!😉)
  13. The skirt is the tricky one! Ive seen all kinds of lengths and gatherings over the years! 😜 If I remember rightly, the teacher got the children to put skirts on then got them to kneel down to check length. The skirt was correct if it just touched the floor! It’s not meant to be character skirt length!! (this was for Manchester centre - she was always a stickler for everything being correct!) she is lovely and we still miss her classes. Definitely the best bit of this crazy dance journey. Enjoy all these best bits, the getting the uniform, the trying the hair etc. It is definitely a fabulous experience and one that we were very proud of being a part of and have very fond memories ❤️❤️
  14. Ribbons - I did DD’s on a clip from yr4 then in yr6 the teacher decided she didn’t like them on a clip! They can be done as you go - Do pigtails and plait. Wrap ribbon round top next to head and knot, then get child to hold ends out of the way. Finish off hair then tie ribbon into bows! Easy 😁
  15. I always washed JA leotards inside out! Where I get all my logo wear from gave me that tip years go! So always do that with all printed stuff - don’t know if it helps, but never had any problems! 😁💗
  16. TwoDancers - that’s how it works in Manchester too! You explained it perfectly! 🤪
  17. Hiya please can I have a photo of Bloch navy S leotard please x
  18. Just to clarify - I mean individual toe protector for extra cushioning for pointe for her exam! I agree micro por is fab and can be used for lots of things
  19. Ouch!!!!! Why are they always in awkward places! My dd ended up trying to walk to school in flip flops or in her warm up boots as couldn’t get shoes or trainers on for 2 weeks! They took longer than that to heel they were that bad! I would just say keep it clean and as you say keep it dry. Can she put an individual toe protector over it for now! Only thing I can suggest at the moment (that’s what I would suggest to my dd!) Hopefully someone else will come along with another suggestion soon 😁 Good luck to your dd for adv1 🍀
  20. Word of caution - get treated properly! My dd got blisters on both her ‘bunion’ joints (not that she has bunions, just easiest way to describe where they were!) carried on dancing. She ended up on antibiotics because they got infected! So please don’t take short cuts with blisters, use proper dressings. They were not a pretty site! And we had to do all this with photos on messanger as dd away at school!
  21. Good luck to him for September. It’s a fabulous school. Wish we’d have been there from yr7! 🍀🍀
