Absolutely no idea but also losing that feeling of hope... My youngest dd off to RB today at Covent Garden - apparently thats a whole month of waiting but definitely do not think we'll get a place there ????

This waiting is torture????

Anyone get a letter today? ????

No I didn't speak to them but another mum e mailed & basically they said letters will go out on 1st ????

Starlight - did you speak to Tring? I have discovered that I am no good at waiting

One of my dd's was in group 1 the other group 2 I'm guessing not many will be leaving at such an early age ????

Apparently letters going out on 1st June ????

????????????????

From what I could make out the CBA at Tring had 5 groups of 22 of various ages through out the day to audition. No idea for how many places. At the Royal ballet Eastleigh audition the same numbers. About 120 kids at that one centre. I was told but not sure how true it is that of the youngest group of 22 they were ruffly after 2 of the 8 boys and 2 of the 14 girls. I did not see many boys at CBA but I was not looking around that much x

Thank you ????

Just out of interest how many children were in each group at the other audition you mentioned please? ????

Thank you thats kind - I like your forum name in fact I need a similar name - taxi4dance ????????????

Hi all, we also attended the Tring audition my little girls were limbering before they did the class because we were aware that their flexibility is taken into consideration (it was written in the letter) .. Of course it doesn't mean they will be offered a place but when asked to do splits etc it would be naive not to have warmed up.. I know how diaunting is if your child attends something like this on their own but because a few girls are chatting excitedly doesn't mean they're loud etc.. The small group of children we were with thoroughly enjoyed the audition and were wowed by the beautiful studios ( you should see where they train) & the teachers.. Sometimes attending things like this is an eye opener but usually you learn from these things & it does make you realise that there are better schools out there etc, this happened to us a few years back.. It's always good to move your child If you feel your child is not reaching their full potential, after all it is about progression but most importantly enjoyment. It would be a wonderful opportunity to receive a place but I know for mine it's a long shot as there were so many children in each group. Apparently we will be informed by letter by 6th June the outcome so a long wait indeed .. Best of luck to all the children who took part ????
