For anyone who was accepted, Congratulations! Did RBS set a deadline to accept? Just curious as a waitlister here when I can expect the earliest notification of a potential spot.  Based on comments previously posted here, it seems that waitlisters that do get in wait a long time to receive news of a spot for their child. Is that a safe assumption? Thank you!

Hi, payment deadline is 15 March. My DS was on waitlist first time we applied, got offer a place in June about 4 weeks before the intensive started, so places do come up but might be at the last minute 😄

Following on from the original post, can anyone share what happens at WL in terms of weekends, leave-out and how long are holidays? Do they take all their stuff back at end of each term? Does WL also do an activity each weekend? 

Hi, at WL there are activities most weekends, visiting exhibitions, cinema, and shopping and kids seem to enjoy them 😄 Yes they take stuff home at the end of each term as change beds too! RAD classes started this term.

On a separate point, does anyone know how many girls and boys were taken into RBS and Elmhurst last year ie the Y7s starting now? 

My DS is starting in Year 7 at RBS, think there’s 10/11 boys + 10/11 girls

My DC was in Totnes JAs, such a shame it’s closing as really enjoyed our time there and helped to have a link with the Royal Ballet,  not so easy to get to Bath/London depending on where you are in the South West.

Totnes JAs not asked either but guess too far away to be in performances in London.

Anyone got a DS attending Week 1 (age 10/11 group)? 

Yes my DS age 11 is doing that week too 😊

SOLD

Hi, I’m interested in these tickets if still available? 

Just bumping this up as the tickets are for next Sat 8 July - tickets £25 each.

Hi,

I've got 2 e-tickets for the below as we're now unable to attend - just let me know if you are interested. 

Hi, last year my DS got a place from the waiting list in June, think they might offer places up to a few weeks before SI starts?

Well done to him! The wait list for y7 is very small, there are usually only 2 or 3 boys on it, so he has done extremely well. It’s a difficult one as obviously you never know if a place will be offered or

not but there is often a bit of movement. It might be worth asking the school how many boys are on the wait list (maybe through JA teacher if he is a JA?) but they may just say ‘a very small number’. 

Thank you, it’s good to know there is some hope!

DS auditioned last week for Year 7 at White Lodge, now anxiously awaiting results, feels like a long time already! Anyone know when results likely to come out? They said around 2 weeks, but think in past years it’s been earlier, hope that’s the case!

Just found out that DS is on the wait list for Year 7 - didn’t know there was a wait list, anyone else know about this?

Did anyone hear when WL Y7 girls results will be out? 

I think the boys & girls results might come out at the same time? Year 7 boys auditions were 2nd & 3rd Mar, hope we don't have to wait too long!

I think the Year 7 girls final audition is today so will prob next week for the results?

Hi everyone, just a little question… if we were lucky enough to get a place from the waiting list, do they email you or call you? 
Thank you xxx

It was an email last year, nearly missed it as didn’t expect it!

My DS was on the wait-list for the SI (lower school) last year and was offered a place in June (for week 1 starting 19 July) so there is some movement 😊 

28 March for payment

It’s our 1st time getting a Yes, waitlisted for summer intensive last year and lucky to get offered a place at start of June. Has WL finals for Year 7 this week too so hoping that will give a confidence boost!

Anyone keen to resurrect this thread a bit more as we get closer to finals? I’ve read back on last year’s one and it seemed like such a supportive and helpful group! My DD is applying for a year 7 place. 

I’d be keen on this, have DC doing Year 7 finals for WL.

DS just got a Yes for Yr5 in Totnes, over the moon! 

Hi, new to this forum, just been reading the thread on the JA auditions. My son was SWL for Year 4 Totnes last year, think just 4 kids in the JA class (2 boys & 2 girls). He did the JEP which was great, keeping fingers crossed for this year, hope they let us know soon 😀
