Bailarin Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Over 60 girls there today for US finals. The waiting starts again.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regattah Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 I meant to ask how long it will be before we find out - but forgot to ask! Did anyone else ask? Also, how many girls and boys are there in 6.1 usually? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lifeafterballet Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 The Elms sleeps 43 ! That's divided between 6.1 and 6.2 ! I guess the number in the year group depends on how many require boarding ! Greater than a 3:1 ratio of girls to boys too I guess ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regattah Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Congratulations, Rubbishballetmum (I'm sure you're not rubbish, btw)! Was it for upper or lower school? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubbishballetmum Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 It was lower school. He's away for the week so I can't even let him know! The results have taken a week he has also had a yes for WL so now we have decisions to make but at least they are good ones!! Good luck to everyone waiting. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danceintherain Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Wow, congrats, what a wonderful position to be in! I wonder if the Y7 girls letters are also out....I'm at work so won't find out until 5pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JulieW Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Congratulations RBM and don't worry yet FAD, quite a few children had also been offered WL so the chance of a place coming up would be quite high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danceintherain Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 That's great news farawaydancer, they clearly liked your DS. Alas, no girls letters yet, maybe tomorrow.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LinMM Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Well done to your son RBM I think you'll definitely have to rethink your name though! How about "talentinthefamily" 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danceintherain Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 So the Y7 girls letters are out, and it's another no for my DD. Really hoping she won't be too disappointed. Thankful she has a school disco tonight....a welcomed distraction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tulip Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 She's still got plenty of time danceintherain. You get to keep your lovely daughter at home for longer. Tap into associate programmes to keep her training topped up. Best of luck for the future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danceintherain Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Thanks Tulip. I am so relieved I get to keep her, I must admit! She's an Elmhurst associate currently, but that will be coming to an end soon, but we may look at their RAD classes. She's also a BBO mid-scholar, so lots of things going on still. I may have a look around at other schemes, especially as it sounds the RBS MAs is hard to get, so I'm expecting a no there too. After the initial disappointment I think she'll be fine, and it means she can audition for panto again this, something she loved being part of last year! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tulip Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Don't forget Anna De Biosson she has a fantastic reputation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonnie2011 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 My dd has a yes letter from elmhurst. We are so pleased how lucky she has been. So sorry for the no letters but as it has been said you get to keep your daughters at home which has to be a silver lining. Xx 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regattah Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I'm sorry to hear your news, Danceintherain. It sounds as if you have so many opportunities within reach of you that I am sure she will be able to keep up momentum until she applies again, if she wants to. Congratulations, 2b'sm! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mae989 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Sorry to hear your DD's no Danceintherain, onwards and upwards though! She is clearly a beautiful dancer to have got this far Can I ask what BBO mid-scholars is? And what RAD classes do Elmhurst do? My DD got a no for finals (kind of glad she got it early) so we are looking for RAD classes. She will stay on as a Y7 associate also. congratulations twoballarinasmum!

Happymum Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 It's a yes for my DD!!!! I'm sooo happy for her! I was so stressed because of these auditions and she was so sad because of the "no" and "waiting list" that I have to admit I avoided the forum recently but I'm glad I'm back with such good news! 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happymum Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Sorry it was a "no" this time Danceintherain, hope your DD is ok. Well done Twoballerinas! Did you decide which offer you are going to accept? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picturesinthefirelight Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 The BBO exam board have their own scholars scheme. I gather its a bit like an associate scheme, it is auditioned & there is a classical ballet or a jazz strand. You have to go to a BBO registered dance school/teacher to be eligible b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
