Legseleven Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Does Elmhurst want these photos with the dancer in just a leotard, ie with bare legs and feet? I know someone said on a previous thread that they thought this was the case, but I know that the senior summer school photos included pointe work and the line drawings also seem to show a bare-legged dancer! Can anyone whose DD has applied please confirm one way or the other? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loulabelle Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 I did my DD's with bare legs and no shoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legseleven Posted May 17, 2013 Author Share Posted May 17, 2013 Many thanks Loulabelle. Have you heard whether she has a place and if so how long did you have to wait for the confirmation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afab Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 (edited) I asked Elmhurst and they said whatever the child is most comfortable with. I did them with tights and ballet shoes. DD got in... The answer came within a few days... Edited May 17, 2013 by afab 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loulabelle Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Yes she has a place, but to be honest I've not heard of anyone who applied that didn't get a place. I applied very early so reply took a few weeks, but way earlier than I expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legseleven Posted May 17, 2013 Author Share Posted May 17, 2013 Thanks, Loulabelle and afab. Will have to decide soon whether to apply and then get photos done quickly if so, in hope of getting the £25 discount! I wonder whether Elmhurst is prescriptive about whether photos to apply for Y7 and Y8 places are done with bare legs and feet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legseleven Posted May 17, 2013 Author Share Posted May 17, 2013 Do you mind my asking how old your DDs are? Mine is Y8 (aged 12) and has just gone into RAD Advanced 1/Advanced Foundation. She would find going to summer school other own and not knowing anyone rather a trial, so we may decide not to apply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afab Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Mine just turned 11. She will know no-one there and finds it slightly worrying... But she's game! I won't be far away just in case... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legseleven Posted May 17, 2013 Author Share Posted May 17, 2013 On her own, not other own! Autocorrect is autoincorrect! Thanks afab, it may encourage mine if she knows that someone younger than her is going on their own... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loulabelle Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Mine is Yr7 just 12, she is RAD and ISTD Intermediate. She has a couple of friends going too, but is very keen to make new friends, she does tend to find a new friend where ever she goes so these days there's always someone 'there' she knows! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
