  1. Our letter says return before 28th March…😳
  2. Why am I saying this…I don’t think it is the same as gaining the place in year 8 per se…There were some fabulous dancers from all parts of the world and homegrown (UK) and I do not know how many of them were offered a place. I met some lovely parents too…the audition was remarkably calm and quiet.
  3. Thank you TwirlyWhirly! We are currently living in Europe so no MDS for us for two years 🙄 I know I don’t have to explain but I want to set the record straight. My DD auditioned for year 8, but since she is born on a very last day of August, at the finals I mentioned whether she could be in fact considered for the year 7 since she is coming from different school system and would probably benefit from an extra year academically speaking, so the offer they sent is for the year 7! I did not mention it before in any email correspondence or anything like that, but it was something on my mind and the opportunity arose during the final in person auditions when another family suggested the same for their son who was also physically smaller. They noted it down informally and that was all 🤷‍♀️
  4. On another note…anybody knows how difficult it is to get a scholarship to help with the fees? 💸 the cost is extraordinary 🙈
  5. Thank you. Year 7 …It’s a little bitter sweet knowing that even if she can get in to year 7 only very few remain for the next stage - year 10 and on. But for now we are of course very happy for her
  6. My DD got a waitlist for SI and a yes for full-time WL so it’s all a mystery to me
  7. Wow that’s a retention rate of 30% for the girls 😫
  8. Hi, does anyone know how many dancers from year 9 get to year 10? Or can you point me in the direction where this is discussed? Thank you
  9. Hi RubyM, unfortunately that’s not the case. My DD was at the finals for year 8 this week and got a waitlist for SI. 🤷‍♀️
  10. Got it, thank you! It’s strange they don’t actually tell you any of this in advance…it would be fair to know. My dd is applying for the year 8 - so current year 7, but I imagine that would be the same situation! Give everyone is guaranteed to stay if they want to for the first 3 years…
  11. Oh ok, that will definitely put it into perspective for her 😬 Thank you BarbaraH!
  12. Hi, I know it’s hard to tell but does anybody have an insight into how many dancers go to the final round of auditions and how many do they take for year 8? My DD got to the final round but I don’t want to keep her hopes up, so looking for some stats…Thank you!
  13. Was this on RBS facebook page? Or is there another facebook forum? If so do you mind sharing the page? Unless it’s somebody’s personal FB account of course…
  14. Hi, does any of you know if the participants of the summer intensive that would like to be considered for full time programme get a feedback or not at all? My daughter said she saw a lady taking notes one day but not sure if we will receive any feedback. Thank you
  15. Oh no I only just sent out the form about attendance on the final day of the SI W3 😩 I am so stressed that I missed the deadline and worry they won’t let me watch. I sent them an email apologizing so hoping they will take a pity on me. I don’t understand why they needed it so early! It’s not like they are asking for some further details, only the name 🥺
  16. Thank you Valentina! You are right, I think I will probably call them and see what they say.
  17. Hi all, does anybody know the RBS policy on fringe/bangs? Do female dancers have to pin them away for the practice or just for the demos/performances? My daughter recently cut her hair and no she is unrecognizable in her portrait photo? Would you re-take photo with a fringe or will she have to pin hers away anyway? Thanks in advance for any input. I’m not sure what to do 😅
  18. Hi all, long time lurking but first post here. I saw couple of acceptances for week 3. My 10year old daughter is super excited to have been accepted as well. Would anybody want to meet up ahead or at the start of the week 3 and get the little dancers to get to know each other? It will be her first residential and she is a little bit nervous about that.
