LovetoDance2003 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Hi, has anyone booked yet for The Hammond Summer School? Anyone done it before and can give any advice, and is it better to go resedential or as a day student? Looking at this for my DD who is 11 and just about to go into yr 7.

Picturesinthefirelight Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 My daughter did it last year & the year before. First as a day student then residential. She definatly enjoyed residential more as she felt more integrated & got to do the evening activities @ socialise more. She really enjoyed it both years & surprised herself by trying some dance styles shed not done before She's not doing it this year as she's now in year 7 at Hammond & her dad is teaching on the summer school so wants to do a different one.

sarahw Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Hi lovetodance, The Hammond course covered all sorts of dancing- dc very ballet orientated. Last year they did Hammond and Elmhurst- can only do one this year so dc chose Elmhurst. Hammond is much longer though so better in that respect I think. ....
