Thanks PurplePirouette this is really helpful and congrats to you too 😃

Congrats to you too - well done!!! Your thought make sense and had crossed my mind 😃

It's an odd one - I can't recall exactly what options I put on the application but the offer is: Yes to a day place with waiting list for residential. We live 2.5 hours away so a day place is not an option. We were thinking of moving at one time so perhaps I ticked that box. Also offered an MDS audition on the 18th March and this is for assisted funding - residential. The day place has thrown me a little 😃

Tring results are out, ours just arrived in the post!

Thank you 😃

Thank you - what did the academic test comprise of?

Thank you 😃

Hi All - wondering whether anyone knows about the WL finals for boys. The dates have been moved to 7th & 8th of March. This causes us a difficulty, does anyone know how these days work - is it two days, is it one day with a call back, is the call back if they need to see more or is it the final stage for all those DC still in the running? Many thanks 😃

Thank you 😃

It is! three weeks plus postage time - might be here next Tuesday! On a related note - for any of those parents that have heard from Elmhurst only a few days after you auditioned - did you receive an email the day of your audition saying that you would hear in 7-10 working days? Thanks 🙂

Sorry to hear that - hope for other opportunities for her x

Ours is on Friday 25th also for semi final 🙂

DS said the same re complexity and he has also never done jazz but hoping they take that into account. I can only assume that they offer funding auditions to those who reach the standard and have ticked the box but is an assumption.

Thanks BalletBoysDad, apart from the 'couple of weeks', that is also my understanding. Due to a potential clash with something else, I had to ask when the funding auditions take place. They would not be specific but told me it was mid-March. 🙂

Guilty as charged, lovely meeting you & DS. Odd that they seem to not have shared some sort of time for results - fingers crossed 🤞

DS says that they were called in 1 at a time and the others waited around outside the studio. Does anyone know when we hear the results?

Hi Folks, for the Tring 1 minute dance at audition.. does anyone know how this works? Is it part of the lesson? Is it done in front of other candidates. DS has been asking but I have no idea 😄

DS doesn't have anyone who can choreograph a routine so is making one up, I can't even download/buy the exact version of the song he wants so having to remote record and then download onto USB - all very painful. Does anyone know more about the academic assessment? Thanks 😄

Sorry - messages crossing 😄

Thursday 16th of Dec.. I am writing to you today to let you know that, as things stand at the moment, we are still planning to hold our auditions in person. However, we are putting some measures into place for the auditions: I am sorry but, on this occasion, we are only able to have one parent accompanying the candidate for the meeting with the Principal and Course Directors. This will also be the case for the tour of the school. Please note the following: We require all candidates and parents coming to the school to take a Lateral Flow Test within 24 hours of attendance please. Of course if the test is positive please don't attend the audition, we will suggest an alternative. All visitors will need to wear a mask at all times. Candidates will need to wear a mask at all times , except during their audition, unless exempt for medical reasons. Candidates should bring your own water bottles. Should Government advice for schools change, we will be in touch with alternative arrangements.

Trying not to think about it, Tring have sent email saying plans are remaining the same for now - DS audition is on the 7th of Jan 🤞

Thank you 😄

DS WL auditions are 10th and 11th March - does anyone know when they give results? Does he also have to get through the 10th to make the 11th? 😀

My DS has his on 25th Jan 😀

Great news - well done!
