Speaking from the other end of the spectrum my young dancer is in beginner and primary and we really enjoyed this feis despite the late running. The older gentleman who gave out the results on sunday in the sports hall really made the kids feel special. Especially letting the winner read their own number out via the mic. Myself and lots of other parents felt this was a really nice touch! -- For the love of the dance

In reply to: an extremely ticked off parent and child. 's message, "I need to have a rant. We made a bad decision to attend St Bernadettes fesi. Don't get me wrong nice venue. Weird results in many age groups especially solo results. However in one of the age groups the Highly recommended 14 dancers in their solo results. That was after it was pointed out that 14 of these dancers hadn't placed at all. What were these people thinking? Would it have been so hard to work out the oher 14 palces? The dance Drama was beautiful. However must say next year I'll donate the entry fee and not allow my child to be humiliated. End of rant." on Mon, Mar 26 2007, 2:04:42
