  1. Has anyone else had a no from Elmhurst and asked for feedback? We got an email saying she could get feedback via the young dancers email, which we’ve asked for, but not had yet.
  2. Thank you. We did the same and let her miss her Friday local class. Have said she has to be brave and go back to Elmhurst today though.
  3. Glad my dd won’t be the only one, but sorry your dd has had a no as well. It’s been a tricky evening managing her emotions.
  4. @Ballet-Tutu we have had a no as well today. I hope it’s only for the full time as dd was planning on applying for extended young dancers now. I thought they were separate! Does your child attend young dancers? Dd does and is worried everyone else will have got through when she goes tomorrow.
  5. @The red shoes that sounds like a good option, thanks!
  6. Yes, there was no access to MAC toilets and the park toilets were padlocked!
  7. Me again, with a slightly unrelated question. Has anyone found anywhere that has toilets open near Elmhurst. Spent a long time desperately trying to find some today but couldn’t, they were all locked. I can understand Elmhurst not letting us in to limit contacts at the moment, but surely there’s somewhere nearby?! Has anyone got any hidden gems they can let me know for next week please? Thank you!
  8. Thank you @WhatsThePointethat’s the information I needed! Glad I’ve got a while before next needing to go through the audition process.
  9. I’ve seen that the applications are now open for Young Dancers. What I’m not sure of and wonder if anyone knows is, if you are already in this year, do you have to reapply for next year? Or do they assess them in class for moving up? My dd started this year in yr5 but I haven’t seen anything to explain how they progress into yr6. Anyone with experience who could advise, I’d be grateful. Thanks.
  10. @Spamcatwe’re still waiting for group 4 too.
  11. @Spamcatshe’s Blue group, 8:45-10 door B. Maybe they are mixed then? Might explain why she thinks they all know each other?
  12. We’re the year5 in a year 4 class that Spamcat mentions, but it’s her first year. No uniform arrived and no updates here either. Managed to get a secondhand leotard for this week though.
  13. I didn’t think they were mixing years, but my dd is convinced the rest of her class already know each other! She’s door B 8:45.
  14. It is a shame they couldn’t start this week. Fingers crossed it’s able to run next week. This is what I’ve been worrying about happening, not just with this, but school and normal dance classes, just as the children are starting to get some normality back. Trying not to think too far ahead at the moment and just do everything as safely as we can and hope we’re not constantly being sent home for burst bubbles.
  15. My order is still all on back order so apart from shoes that I got elsewhere, dd will have to wear her usual dance kit. Has anyone heard any updates on when they’re likely to be back in stock?
  16. Wow, that was quick, congratulations to your dd! Are you Birmingham? Does it say start this Saturday?
  17. My daughter auditioned for year 5, but has been offered a place starting in year 4 for the first term to get up to speed. Our letter says term starts a week today. I might double check with them later this week, if Year 4 have only auditioned today!
  18. @Spamcat thank you. I’m really pleased they’re prepared to give her the chance. She’s very excited, but quite nervous too.
  19. The class is at 8:45 according to the letter I’ve had. Initially after the audition I had an email saying that they wanted to discuss options for her. When Miss Whiteman called, it was to say they had seen something in her and wanted to give her a chance, but yes, felt she wasn’t quite at year 5 level so suggested this to bring her up to speed.
  20. My daughter comes up small so hopefully the 8-10 I’ve ordered will be ok for her once they get the stock in. If the bigger sizes arrive earlier I’d be interested in your 8-10! Otherwise we’ll just use her usual kit until things turn up. At least I know now that lots of people will be waiting for uniform if the manufacturers are behind at the moment. Thanks all. This level of dance is all new to us!
  21. Sounds like others will be in the same boat then, thank you!
  22. Hi, I’m new to the forum. My daughter has been offered a year 4 place, with a view to move into year 5 after a term if she catches up, following a phone discussion with Miss Whiteman. (She is year 5 age). I believe there may be others with the same offer? As this meant our offer was slightly later than others, we only had the email with all the registration forms, uniform list etc late Wednesday night, so I ordered her kit yesterday, but it’s almost all out of stock. Has everyone else found this too? I’m a bit worried her leotard won’t have arrived by the 12th. Thanks
