We are really struggling finding something she can afford - there is loads on the Isle of Wight but I doubt the ferrys run that late ;) There are some theatre digs but they are expensive and some of them are with a male landlord and she feels quite nervous about living in someones house for 5 weeks ...

this was the problem we had for DD; combined with there not being enough high quality advanced classes locally

It was a nightmare for us

Hi Belledancer, that was the one show I didn't see

Tonights was amazing - DD is now moving into her third year and it really has been a blast!!

But I think a very young child could be traumatised by seeing themselves in perilous/horrific situations even years after the fact (as an adult) & perhaps false memory might become relevent?

I moved away years ago but Aigburth is quite nice, as are some parts of Smithdown Road, Allerton is stil sort after I think Childwall might be too expensive still & I wouldn't go over the water as travelling back at night on public transport was always sporadic Edge lane can be nice & look a...

She moved from 2 offers no funding to 7 offers 6 with funding, so for her it was vital. They had 7 hours a day of ...

London Studio Centre is supposed to be good, and Performers too (obvs)

At Arts Ed but the post 16 course would have been more suitable than the under 16 course but DD enjoyed it

What about Rose Bruford too?

And neither is it rare for them to have a significant learning disability like dyslexia or dyscalcular (sp)

Dad's grandparents put all their loose change into a pot this plus £10 a month since she was born plus all of her christening money & half of every birthday & Christmas money (that DH & I had saved for her) equalled about £500 more than the Foundation year The money had been originally s...

Tbh I think if she wasn't going to dance, teacher or something very Customer orientated would be the best careers for her In her first real job her boss was surprised at how Customer savvy she was compared to significant lacks of knowledge in other areas Prob because she grew up with a business (a n...

She has a big afro - so I imagine she was quite visible!!
