DancingShoes Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 We had a no for year 8 too. Dd is devastated, like you this was our 2nd year of trying. I'm sure she'll be ok soon but it's very hard watching them ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancefanatic Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 DancingShoes, I am so sorry to hear that. I firmly believe that it can still be their time in the future, but their path is just going to be different and perhaps a bit more adventurous. Certainly, my DD has achieved a lot and I do think finals for two years in a row is absolutely amazing. Maybe, if you're strong enough to try again next year, we'll see you on the circuit. No matter what, lots of commiserations for you and your DD and don't give up. Now is simply a time to reflect and re-evaluate the road to take, x 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done to all your DC's on making finals - it is an achievement in itself as the talent is clearly there. xx 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lou78 Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 My DD also had a no from Elmhurst and is heartbroken - I can totally sympathise with everyone who didn't reach a final as I wish this would have happened to us now then she probably wouldn't have been as bothered. As parents we all wish for the best for our children and to see her so upset breaks my heart too . Anyway we have a last throw of the dice so to speak at The Hammond next month so I have to try and lift her for that but it is going to be so tough as she naturally thinks it's going to be another disappointment ????

Lema Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 I think there are quite a lot of people's hopes now pinned on the Hammond final next month!! Does anybody know how many there normally are at the audition? So sorry to everyone receiving their no for nows, I know what a heartbreaking position it is to be in, but if you decide to continue down this route then rest assured that it does seem easier in year 8, I think because you know how to manage your expectations a bit better along with the fact that you know the chances of a year 8 place becoming available are so slim, it definitely makes the whole experience a lot less stressful!! Huge congratulations to all the yes' and best of luck to those still waiting on results ???????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outofmydepth Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Back to another day of checking the forum and refreshing emails! Huge well done to the yeses, keep going to the no's. Good luck to those still waiting ???????? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balletbrokemybank Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 If you get a no for Mids do they let you know or only the Yes'? We are Birmingham. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lema Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 If you get a no for Mids do they let you know or only the Yes'? We are Birmingham. They let you know either way, but I've not heard of any Birmingham results being out yet so maybe they are last to be released?

balletnat1 Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Hmm... , only 1 email that we know about so far... Nothing here. I hope that doesn't mean that the 'yes' emails have gone out and the 'no' will follow. Anyone else waiting for Birmingham? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balletbrokemybank Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 We are, although I think they ask boys to go to London which is not something we are able to do. It would be nice to have something positive to tell ds but I am not holding my breath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lema Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Does anyone know if any year 7 girls have had multiple offers from different schools who were offered elmhurst x Sorry can't help with this but your question led to me wondering how many Hammond finalists will have been offered places else where and will no longer attend the audition as surly places will have to be accepted at other schools before the Hammond audition even happens!! Makes you wonder how many were offered finals and how many will be attending, hmmm the mind does like to ponder to questions I guess we will never know the answer too lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
