Bluebird22 Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 The girls in group 1 all seemed to be associates, and I think a few of the boys were royal JAs. I wondered if that was deliberate grouping? I know from previous threads children have felt a little intimidated seeing associate uniform at auditions.Ā Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ms Sunshine Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 This was us last year. Its so scary and stressful. Best of luck to you all x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluebird22 Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 I loved that they included improvisation, the last time I took a student to audition there was no improvisation and I think itās just the bestĀ way of seeing the children express themselves.Ā Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkbeans Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 My daughter was in the second class yesterday. Number 4 - in the Mulberry leotard. She didnāt wear her RBS JA leotard as I thought maybe it looks a little rude to the school to wear another schools leotard?! Anyhow, she loved it. Fingers crossed for everyone. This morning hasnāt gone so well, sheās had her foot run over walking to school, so weāre sat in A and E š! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dd decided not to wear her Royal JA uniform!Ā I agree, personally I think it is hugely disrespectful to turn up to any school in another schools uniform claiming you want a place at that school!Ā My husband a-likened it to turning up at Man Utd for a trial wearing a Man City kit!š„“ Im not sure of parents thinking behind it as the white JAĀ leotards are not exactly flattering!Ā These schools take what they want regardless of whatever uniform they are sporting!Ā 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowan Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 I think thatās a bit harsh to say itās disrespectful. Maybe itās the only leotard they had. Many years ago for us, but mine only ever had one leotard at that age.Ā 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darkbeans Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 Thank you. Sheās had her operation and is home. Remarkably,Ā although the wound was down to the vital structures they were all intact. All cleaned and closed. Back in on Monday to see how itās looking. Then weāll know more about recovery time etc. Sheās ok though, in herself š.Ā 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
