  1. I know children who travel in from quite a distance, South Coast for example. My own dd has 1 hour journey door to door, shes done it for 5 years quite happily no issues, they all become very streetwise and self sufficient. There are some homestay options, but this does vary each year and cant be guaranteed, best to talk to them about how that works. Happy to answer any questions about the school.
  2. LVBS courses are wonderful, great teachers, some well known guest teachers. I think its particularly good for the younger ones, but older ones get lots out of them too. Its always fun and a lovely caring environment.
  3. Also, does anyone know if they are required to dance over the middle weekend?
  4. waitlist offer came through for US intensive today. Can anyone tell me how long the days are at the US? Shes a day student so wondering what time she'll be likely to finish/start each day.
  5. Thank you so much @BalletMumOfOne thats perfect, found Black Swan and a whole host of other useful ones! What a good resource. Thanks again
  6. Does anyone know where to get hold of a recording of the black swan variation which is not too fast? dd is doing this one and the only ones I can find are on Itunes and all really fast! The Royals version is a good speed but I cant find a recording of this. It can be CD or otherwise.
  7. Hi Maura, my dd is on waiting list for upper school, shes been on the WL waiting list 3 years in a row but never got a place..... so were not expecting to this year! I do know dancers who have got places for WL from the waiting list though, so it is possible. If its a 'no' they do say its a 'no'. If anyone knows anything about US waiting list I'd be interested?
  8. Does anyone happen to know whether there's ever much movement on the waiting list for entry to the school? Or how long a list they usually have? I know its a long shot but thought I'd ask anyway.
  9. Just Ballet hire out some beautiful tutu's
  10. Does anyone know what has happened to this company? Are they still performing?
  11. do you happen to know if this applies to upper school final auditions?
  12. Luke Abnett www.balletphysio.com well known, and I would highly recommend.
  13. Does anyone happen to know if there is more or less movement in US compared with WL? DD has got waitlist 3rd year in a row (never got a place) but its US this time.
  14. I thought there might be one but couldnt find it
  15. Does anyone have any experience of their dc having to miss a school audition due to illness... particularly upper schools. Are they quite flexible and offer some alternatives?
  16. I dont think its likely. Based on previous SI related emails, its always a weekday. Trying to forget about it till Monday!
  17. Is it not possible it could be next week? Even though its half term? Believe me, I'm hoping its today as well.....
  18. Thanks for that, maybe next week then!
  19. another day of checking emails.....
  20. I wish they would too! Checking emails every 5 mins...
  21. I wouldnt be surprised if we have to wait a couple more days ....!
