    If she’s yr5 now (yr6 next yr) and still 9, when will she be 10? I know it’s too late now but RBS take from yr5. My dd was 10 the week before she did RBS SS. She was lucky to get a place that year (only 1 in her JA class) and we did it to see how she coped away from home for a week knowing that auditions would be the following year. That way you will know how much she really wants it! YBSS occasionally take 9yr olds, and also Opes I think! Both of which have fabulous pastoral care in place. I wouldn’t worry about not doing anything in the hols at this age as there’s an awful lot of kids that don’t do anything in the hols, but don’t over do it either as she does need a break from dance too!

    I would say definitely change to another date as she won’t give her best if she’s that unwell! Take care x

    That’s fantastic news! What year is your ds? They are auditioning for full time spaces at the moment!!

    I think that was the date for last year. DH guessed it might be Sat 17th Feb - hoping it is as already in London for following day!

    Hi we’re also hoping to do London Audition. DH has contacted RCS numerous times and still no date for London has been set!

    I would go adult small rather than children’s size!

    Ohh ok! Another exercise RBS teacher got them to do to help balance, exercises the arch in the feet and is fun to do is, when brushing teeth balance on one leg on demi pointe as high as she can with the other leg in retire! (Rather than using a balance board - saves money too!!)

    Hi Princessballerina You say her associate teacher has also mentioned this! I am assuming you mean RBS Assiciate teacher? If so, your dd will have daily foot exercises given by her associate teacher that she does with a theraband. Is she doing her exercises as this will strengthen the feet and therefore help with the problem!

    I found some lovely gift bags with a nutcracker doll on in Home Bargain last week! Different size bags, and also Nutcracker Christmas cards! Going back tomorrow to see what else there is! We’re Nutcracker mad in our house!

    Would definitely recommend trying for Hammond. Its a fab school and only an hour or so away from North Wales! Try this year, if offered a place and it doesn’t work out fees/MDS wise you can always say no thank you!

    Has anybody already applied for ENB and had a reply? As originally there were 2 dates for London - 20th January and 10th February or is 20th Jan now full and have you sent in a DVD as well as photos!! I'm confused!! 🙄🙄

    Hiya the black cap sleeve they wear for ballet will be fine! And you can get that style in different colours. It doesn't have to be strappy! So if she's comfortable in that one then go for that but in another colour. Ask Stardust !

    We used to just take it on a hanger! But then parking was right outside studio in Centre Pointe for us! Good luck to all JA's starting, a very special time xx

    JA's every time! We still miss our classes even now - in fact it only came up in conversation today. Happy carefree times!

    I really wouldn't worry about having the skirt on the first day. I'm sure if you explain to the teacher that its being made and will be ready asap that she will understand!

    The ribbon is for bows for the hair! I know for Manchester JA's we had cross plaits with 2 bows 1 each side - so cute. But I know other centres just did a bun with 1 bow at the back. Which centre and teacher will you be having? If Miss Agar then probs the cross plaits!!

    Hiya your dd will love the Hammond it's a fabulous school! My dd uses 2 bags - 1 for dance and 1 academic, they have so much stuff that yes they do need the 2! My dd's academic is black and dance is navy but that's because that's what she liked! Hope that helps.

    Just got back from watching the Gala performance this evening. It is absolutely phanominal. The music, the dancing, singing, acting, choreography and costumes absolutely superb. Well done The Hammond in your Centenary production a fitting celebration of a fantastic school. Can't wait to watch again.
