Daughter might get confused with different styles of teaching and it would be nice to give one class up to someone who's waiting "/
-
I know that this might get some bad reaction but yes I am going to let her try and do both classes at Elmhurst and then go to the JA class at Eastleigh, she can be put on the waiting list for Birmingham but I have been told the classes run later in the day so not an option we have until recently been driving to London Saturday mornings for ballet lessons, then back to her ballet classes straight after and she has coped well this year, my dd wants to do both and has worked very hard this year and whilst I agree I'm mad she has been offered two amazing opportunities and we are behind her 100%

What a wonderful performance. Smee and Peter Pan such lovely dancers. Captain Hook hilarious and the children from both schools were amazing. Well done Anna. Lovely to see JA's from RBS and students from White Lodge come to watch.

My dd joined a new dance school in year 7 and had two girls that made her life a misery. At her academic school the girls where lovely. This new dance school the first girl ignored her, gave sweets and biscuits to everyone in the changing room except my daughter and she couldn't understand what she had done wrong. Eventually I had a word with her dance teacher and she said 'The girls problem is that dd had come from another school, joined them and is better than the said girl and that dd didn't have the problem the said girl did'. This made her feel a lot better, eventually we spoke to her lovely mother and all was sorted. The second....well.....like mother like daughter. Mother was one of these pushy mums. My daughter this my daughter that....yawn....... My daughter use to go to LJB and this girls mum said I want my daughter to go. I explained that she had to ask her dance teacher to put her forward, teacher said no but she still went ahead, got in and left after first term. Couldn't keep up with the point work! This girl was always making snyd remarks. Outcome........ Made my daughter a wiser and harder person in respect that when confronted with bitchyness she can smile nicely and say ..'ok', 'while she talking about me she is leaving some one else alone', 'haven't got time for this and walk away' and confront them in front of people NICELY and say 'why are you being like this'? I am so proud of her and I think it was good experience before going away to full time ballet school. Actually she is the youngest (just turned 16 when she started Ballet school) and looks out for her colleges, she is 'Mummy D'

Been advised by them in Richmond that they prefer 'sewn in labels' as other sorts come off or wash out.

What size character shoe is ds
-
The uniform list says black tights. My son has dark blue tights. Will these be ok or do I need to buy black - does anyone know if it is important that they are black? I am already going to have to buy some character shoes (which he does not have) so I don't really want to buy tights if it's not really necessary!
Thank you!

Found these transfers great for socks - just ironed them onto the base of foot - wash well - and saves any sticky out cotton sewing sticking into feet/ankles. Used them on underwear/sheets/other clothing - great idea and a lifesaver when you have lots of stuff to label!

And they come with a pink surround (much to my DDs joy) ;D
