Tring Funding Audition

[BalletBelle]

Just wondering whether anyone has received any info about the Tring funding auditions yet?

I'm trying to work out whether I need to book a hotel, which depends on start time.

My daughter's is on the 19th March but I know there are earlier ones for different courses, so I'm hoping someone might already have some info...

I actually wrote to them on Wednesday to ask but haven't received a response yet...

I got my hopes up yesterday, when they emailed the DaDA form through - I thought that maybe the audition info would be attached too!

Hopefully it will be emailed out this coming week 🤞🏻

We got an email with times on today for March 17th. Hope you’ve heard too

That's great news @Ballet Power

 

I haven't heard anything yet but my daughter's audition isn't until 19th.

Out of interest, what start time have you been given?

[Ballet Power]

It says drop off at 11:15 and collection is 12:30!  

[BalletBelle]

Ooh, hopefully ours will be similar and I can avoid a hotel stay 🤞🏻

Thanks for sharing

We have 11:15 drop off time too. I'm pleased it's not an early start  My DD has applied for a year 9 place so I'm guessing there will be multiple time slots throughout the day for different age groups maybe? I've read on their website that most the funding goes to year 7 intake. Does anyone know or have any experience of funding being offered to other year groups?

Tring give MDS to who they think deserves it most, regardless of year group. It changes every year.

Ours is 9.45am sign in. Anyone else?

[BalletBelle]

My daughter starts at 10.30am on 19th

Is anyone going to the 12.45pm audition at Tring on Sunday ?

Does everyone that attends the funding audition but doesn’t get an MDS go onto the waitlist?

[tutugirl]

I believe so

Are the results out ?
