In reply to: Mm 's message, "Why is the AIO not back in the holidays for most States? It was always the week before when it was in QLD. This allowed for majority of kids/students to be on holidays. Younger kids dancing during the week means parents need to take time off. 4 days for AIO means that families with more than one dancer have more days to be there. Sydney for both majors this year is not fair at all." on Fri, Feb 17 2023, 20:16:06"

This ⬆️ This is exactly what I was saying before about nationals. The timing may not suit the 17/18 year olds doing their final exams but trying to squeeze another event into December would inconvenience everyone. Better to miss one year due to school than have a hectic December every year. (NT) -- -, Sat, Feb 18 2023, 14:03:26"
- Uni exams are also in October and November -- Senior dancer, Sun, Feb 19 2023, 11:15:00"
  - I understand what you are saying, but you surely realise that pretty much every parent who has a younger dancer also works, most have other children to consider as well and various other family commitments. There is no one week or day that will suit everyone. If the timetable for any event doesn't suit you, you don't go, end of story, same for everyone. (NT) -- -, Mon, Feb 20 2023, 6:27:04"
