swe Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Has anyone had the timetable for September yet? I have just noticed that there is no half-term break at the end of October/beginning of November for SAs (coinciding with most schools?) so I emailed but they said this is correct. Does anyone know why this is please-we were hoping to go away over half-term so now I am worried about missing a session. Thanks all swe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimi'smom Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Quite often our JA class would run both Saturdays of a half term holiday x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balletgirlsplease Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Our info also said about them being invited to a two day intensive workshop on the mon tues of that half term at covent garden (is that just year 6's?). I was going to book a hOl for that half term but held off until these dates. I am sure if you explained you had a holiday already booked they would understand? (or maybe not!)

Siconne50 Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 The workshop in half term is just for year 6 ( someone on this forum said its an audition preperation workshop) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimi'smom Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 The audition workshop isn't compulsory but is very useful if your dd/ds is hoping to audition for year 7 places. Angela Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sophika9899 Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Just got the information pack today and it gives the timetable ( and a zillion forms you have to fill in and return by 11th July) and uniform info. It also says that if you have to miss one you can email your DDs class teacher so I guess some people do miss the odd class. Phew! when I told my DD she would be missing one class because shed be abroad she asked if she could fly back for it by herself! Great dedication but of course the answer was no! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dancemaddad Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 I wouldnt worry touch Elly our dd missed several classes both for illness and also for festivals and RB were fine about it. Good look to you DD she will love the classes they are fantastic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happymum Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Elly, is your DD starting y4 JA? I'm waiting for timetable as well to be able to plan next academic year. Didn't receive anything today but hope that we all should get it soon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balletgirlsplease Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 I was advised that they couldn't miss for festivals when we auditioned at Leeds so her home teacher has been teaching her festival troupe parts to back up girls incase it clashes. And the two day intensive- is there no point in going if not wanting to audition for vocational schools? Any idea of costs? And would it be helpful for MA auditions?

Siconne50 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Hi my daughter is starting yr 6 sept so will attend the 2 day workshop, not sure about the cost though will get further info in sept i expect, i imagine it would still be beneficial if only wanting to audition for mid associate.

Siconne50 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 No dd not at leeds 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimi'smom Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 The cost of the workshop was very reasonable - £50 for the 2 days! As for missing sessions for festivals, our JA teacher has always been very supportive of the girls taking the opportunity to perform as long as not too many sessions are missed obviously!

sophika9899 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 No sorry to mislead you happymum. My DD is a senior associate. But the pack seemed to be for all associates so yours will arrive any day, I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kat09 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Hi Elly my daughter will be starting SAs but we haven't received a pack. Would be grateful if you could advise date of 1st class as I need to organise work rota - thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sophika9899 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 No problem Kat09. Here's the time table for the first term: Sept 15,22,and 29th Oct 6, 13 and 20th Nov 3, 10,, 17 and 24th Dec 8, 15th. I'm sure you'll get yours soon, after all they need the forms quite soon but don't worry cause today I had to call them about a friend who is away with her DD in Cuba till 3rd August and they said don't worry she can send them back when she gets back. Probably see you on first class cause parents have to stay for a talk on that day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kat09 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Thanks Elly - look forward to meeting you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
