southerndancemum Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Was anyone at y9 finals last year - were any offered a place at all? When we saw the yr9s dance just before Christmas one girl was introduced as having just started in Sept so I'm guessing the answer is 1... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amos73 Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Oh yes, you're right SDM, I remember that now. They didn't say how she had got in though, so whether it was through audition rounds or Summer school, which is sometimes the case I think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frogsmum Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Last year there were 10 girls for Yr 9 finals and none were taken. I believe one girl was then taken from summer school. Bear in mind, it does depend year on year, so don't give up hope! Good luck everyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vonrothbart Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Vonrothbart, it was 5 years ago. Ah, I thought it might have been the same year as us, but ours was two years ago. It maybe does suggest it's similar year on year though. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anon2 Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 We know of girls that have got in to both years 9 and 10 at WL from the auditions. It does happen. And whatever the outcome enjoy the day - your dc has done well to get a recall. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moneypenny Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Yes it certainly does happen and we've also seen it happen several times from WL summer school too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southerndancemum Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 I wonder if they tend to take older ones for SS then - to assess them for WL?   I was told at the weekend a friend was told by her RB JA teacher that you cant just audition for MAs, you have to audition for WL & MAs or just WL - can someone confirm if this is true? Her daughter doesnt want to go away to school, but would love to try for MAs but isnt sure what to do now.

amos73 Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 (edited) I thought you could just tick the MAs box but not WL. I'm sure I was told that by the woman at the JA office too. Â Just heard of two girls from dd's dance school through to WL finals, one for yr 8 and one for yr 9. Both auditioned in London. Soooooo, MUST be Manchester today, and London yr 7 tomorrow. Then Birmingham would be the only ones left to come, so guessing Wednesday latest OutofmyDepth.Come on Royal, we know you're dying to send all those emails out!!!

Is her dd at Royal ballet associates. My dd is and she didn't get into summer school last year. One of the other girls did though. Her and my daughter were both year 5. The other little girl I think is amazing (to my untrained eye) and I felt they were checking her out for admission but that's pure speculation.  You just don't know what they are looking for. The auditions for WL and MA take the form of an associate class but with people on a panel watching. You can just for MA if you want as far as I know.  I'd go for it xx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

balletbrokemybank Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 We are awaiting Birmingham results but didn't audition until last Wednesday so will be a while yet I think. DS has no expectation of getting through to finals but he really enjoyed his audition so that's the main thing.  Does anyone have any info on the format of the Elmhurst finals? DS is through to finals and although DH has seen the school he didn't go for the first audition and would quite like to have a look around and be able to see what I saw. Is that likely to be able to happen? Thank you  Fingers crossed for all those still waiting too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danceintherain Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Jennyboydance - last year at Elmhurst finals, the parents are given a timeslot for a tour, so you will get to see everything again, including one of the boarding houses too. All the current children leave good luck messages (as those auditioning will have their own tour too), it is very lovely. Last year they did say one parent per child though, which is different to WL where both are allowed. It's a shame because I feel both parents need to see it so they can make an informed decision if they are offered a place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
