My little DD is starting in year 7. She's also doing RAD IF and exam on Sunday so we will probably meet up. I will be easy to spot with three olive skinned DD's with me

Is this for year 7?

Lovely news!!xx

My little DD is doing the inter foundation course. She won't know anyone on it but she won't mind. Then home to finish packing for vocational school

I spoke to an 'old' parent who said actually they take all sorts of bags so try not to panic too much That said..this http://www.capeziodanceeu.com/en/item_detailBC/5/Accessories/50/Bags/A0000B38/Trolley-Duffle-Bag- is a great bag which has a retractable handle for using out of school.

My little DD is

No admin fee

I know she'll love it. More excited about this than if she'd got WL Summer School in all honesty. Such an exciting place. She may just want to give up ballet if Kerry's feet are too gorgeous

Laughed out loud at this!

...that your child might go to boarding school 140 miles away when you hadn't even considered it 6 months before... ...that you will spend more on petrol than the mortgage...

Loving the fact that 'our' JA skirt has lasted 6 years, hem down then up again then down for my two DD's. Thinking I will have a little cry on the last lesson

Little DD has a place on the Summer school

Does this mean funding??

Ah that's what you were all doing there! Sorry you got lost. I did the same thing taking my older DD to her school audition there. It's easy to go right past it! What year are you hoping for? If 5 or 6 there will only be places where someone has been assessed out. Good luck.

Little DD has been offered a waiting list place for YBSS. Someone drop out please?! Hehe

It all depends what you're looking for from a Summer School.

If dancers have indicated they need accommodation on the form, this is arranged for them at the uni campus onsite. They have a room to themselves (which was a bit scary for the younger ones to begin with but they had the most wonderful time). If no accommodation has been asked for they need to book quickly off campus as York is a popular destination.

Sorry...no idea but if you phone school they will tell you...they just don't seem to send out letters very quickly. Mind you, neither do any of the other schools to my knowlegde!

Which school is your DD going to Sparkledust?

Thanks She is very pleased as they were against the year 10 and 11 students! How they worked that out I don't know? I actually think each sponsor chooses a dancer they like personally to sponsor by the sounds of it? Could be wildly wrong of course!

Congratulations to your DD and a happy birthday

Well done to your DD

Little DD got a no email today. Big one got two weeks scholarship so a bitter sweet day yet again! Need to find a good and exciting alternative now ????

Definitely 26th June. Just phoned school. Not sure why they haven't sent details but maybe info to print etc?

I bought one the other day from Stardust in Lichfield
