Well done to her!! Please can you remind me what she plays?

My money is still on Friday. I don't really want to know, but my 9 year old clarinet pupil is jumping up and down with excitement...

Thanks all - she's very happy. One of her friends heard yesterday too, also for U11's, so your letters are either on their way or soon to be....

bassclef · 07/12/2016 11:54

Out letter has arrived - DS is in the U13s Grin - he's going to be so happy when I tell him later.

Fingers crossed everyone.

TRL · 07/12/2016 12:07

Great news, bassclef Smile

Many Congratulations Bassclef!

Wafflenose · 07/12/2016 13:16

The daughter known as Goo got into Under 12s on Flute! Very pleased (and rather unexpected).

TRL · 07/12/2016 13:37

Way to go, Goo! Bet you're pleased, Waffle?

We just got our letters - DD got into Under 12s (cello) and DS got into Under 10s (violin) - can't wait to tell them both after school!!!

Paulweller11 · 07/12/2016 14:52

Letters arrived.
7yr old percussionist didn't get in, but good feedback.
9yr old violinist got in.
7yr old will re-audition next yr. Smile

bassclef · 07/12/2016 15:00

Well done to Goo, Bop's DS and DD, and also to Paul's violinist.
Hard luck to Paul's percussionist, but hang in there, and fingers crossed for next year.

Hope you hear soon stringchild.

Paulweller11 · 07/12/2016 15:05

She'd only been playing xylophone for 4/5weeks at the audition and didn't play any timpani, so it was expected. She enjoyed the audition though so all good.

NickyBella · 07/12/2016 15:05

No letter here either I feel physically sick now 😫😫😫
